Pattern is fairly straight forward and self-explanatory. The basic model is based on the infamous christmas balls by Arne and Carlos. If you want to make an easier and simpler model, you can easily drop the flag stripes in the tips. Very friendly and enthusiastic neighbor.

Up until now my experiments have all been skinny jeans made from Burda 103-07-2010. This however is Burda 115-12-2009, a pattern for wide legged trousers with interesting curved seams. The technical drawing will have to do. The trousers are made from yet more of the metallic stretch twill fabric. I got from Truro Fabrics.

I made this cutsy little dress with some. In fact its a almost copy of the second dress. Its a very simple pattern with a dart at the chest. I had to do some hand stitching at the collar to make sure it stays flat, which was surprisingly enjoyable. I also happened to have the exact shade of red for the zipper in my stash! Posted in finished pieces. I made these two .

As an avid fan of cropped sweaters and cute collars, I waited for about three seconds and a half before ordering the Ondée. Sweater when it came out. I had been eyeing the Bluegingerdoll. The lovely pattern is Tambourine. And the yarn is Drops Karisma.

In a very uncharacteristic bout of selfless sewing, I made this sweatshirt as a birthday present for my friend Chiara. I cut a size 4 with no fitting modifications whatsoever. I intended it to be a surprise gift and I could not ask my friend to come in for fitting. Actually this is one of the reasons I chose the Linden. I know the work of Jen from Grainline Studio. I would love to hear your opinion.
