Hi there lovelies! Hallo, ihr Lieben!
I've been having fun designing and sewing shirts with these adorable knit fabrics that have recently arrived in my fabric shoppe. The cool thing about knits is that they don't fray. Plus they are soft and stretchy. If you have never sewn with knits go ahead and try - they are easy to work with so long as you remember to switch your regular sewing machine needle to a ballpoint needle and set the pressure foot to medium or light, depending on how thick the knit fabric is. Here are two longsleeve shirts that I made. The left fabric is called Sweet Apple; the right side fabric used for the sleeves is called Fall Flower and are part of a collection called "Surprise Surprise".
Up next are these thicker sweatshirt-type fabrics perfect for Fall! They come in pink or teal and have a funky owl and star print. With the coming season in mind (actually, it has already arrived over here!) I have designed a comfy lounge pant with side pockets. I am working like crazy to make this pattern available as a PDF, so that you, dear readers and seamstresses, may make a pair for yourself :)
Ebenfalls eingetroffen sind diese etwas dickeren Sweatstoffe in Pink und Türkis mit den lustigen Eulen und Sternen. Diese sind innen schön kuschelig angerauht und perfekt für die kommende Herbst-Saison (die ist ja hier leider schon eingetroffen!). Vor einigen Wochen habe ich eine Kuschelhose entworfen und arbeite nun mit Hochdruck daran, dass Schnittmuster in PDF Format umzuwandeln, damit bald auch Ihr, liebe LeserInnen und NäherInnen, eine solche Hose nachnähen könnt :)
And last but not least, this coming Friday I will be attending a special Fall Market and Open House at Swafing, where I will have the chance to view new fabric collections, attend workshops and chat with colleagues and fellow sewing enthusiasts. This market is always well attended and very busy, so hopefully I will think about snapping a few pics!
Have a wonderful day!

Habt einen wunderschönen Tag!
