The Sadie Bubble Skirt by Ellie and Mac


The amazing new Sadie Bubble Hem skirt is here from Ellie & Mac patterns. Sadie comes in 3 different lengths mini, knee and ankle length, you also have the option to add pockets! I've used this Pink Spot marocain crepe from ABC Fabric and lined the skirt with the same. I love how the bubble hem is created with a rounded hemline and the lining being shorter creates this beautiful bubble look. I've paired mine with the Nyeca top plus I made a colour block shacket. Love how the whole look turned out.

The Anais Dress by Designer Stitch Patterns


I’ve just finished sewing up the brand-new Anais pattern from Designer Stitch, for my version, I went with the two-piece option, a flared skirt paired with a matching peplum-style top with elbow-length sleeves. I love that I can wear them together for a co-ordinated look, or style them separately with other pieces in my wardrobe. Versatility is always a win in my book!
 
I chose a Red/Black Spot Cotton Jersey from ABC Fabric, which I thought was the perfect match for this pattern. The fabric is soft, comfy, and has just the right amount of stretch to make this outfit as practical as it is stylish. Plus, those spots are just too cute to resist!

If you’re planning to make the Anais yourself, my biggest tip is to make a toile first. It really helps if you need to make adjustments before cutting into your main fabric. And don’t skip the measurement instructions, they’re there for a reason, and they made a big difference to my final fit.

Because I’m on the shorter side, I did a couple of tweaks to get the fit just right. These small changes made the proportions much better for my height:
  • Shortened the bodice by ½ inch
  • Took 2 inches off the shortest skirt length
I haven’t worn my Anais out just yet, but I’ve got a lunch planned for next week (๐Ÿท๐Ÿ˜‰) and this is definitely going to be my outfit of choice. I’m already predicting a few compliments when I step out in it! This pattern has so many options, and I’m already planning my next version – this time a dress. I think it’ll be perfect for autumn layered with tights and boots.
