What I sewed last year:

For me:
1. A 1950s jacket with pillbox hat from teh most hideous fake fur in neon pink and purple one could imagine. I made the pattern from scratch, like most of the patterns I used.




2. a checked beret that I've maybe used once:



3. A 1950s-style wrap dress which opens in front:


4. A house dress with a novelty trim with coffee making utensils - thus naming it "the coffee dress"


5. A new skirt and a flounce for the top of my red velvet corset for the Tip the Velvet Valentine's party:


6. The Margareta Leijonhufvud outfit. In this photo the shirt wasn't made yet and I hadn't done anything with my hair, but still:


7. A checked 1940s dress:


8. Well, it's not sewing, but I did knit this jumper from 1934:


9. A cotton print 18th century dress with a striped pettiocat. Both half linen-half cotton.


10. A yellow cotton 1940s summer suit:


11. A sleeveless blouse with ric-rac trim and a navy blue wrap skirt.


12. A reversible bolero jacket, 1950s style, here worn with a dress I made last year:


13. A very simple 1940s summer dress


14. A hat, from braid I got from a place mat and some fake flowers.


15. A 1940s style dress (from a tweaked 1970s pattern) from cotton seersucker in blue and lilac-pink linen.


16. Another 1940s dress, from the pattern I got from [livejournal.com profile] ashariel last year. I changed it a little, but not much.


17. A 16th century red wool kirtle with matching jacket. No photo of me wearing the jacket unfortunately.


18. A grey half circle skirt, with some extra pleats at the back. From thin wool.


19. A winter version of the dress in #15. From a thin wool in glencheck.


20. A 1940s wrap front dress in viscose with velvety spots.


21. A red version of the same pattern (self-drafted of course)


22. A dark blue 1940s (oh yeah? how surprising) style viscose dress with sailor collar.


23. The dark green 1930s-40s dinner dress.


For Maja:
1. Another 1950s wrap dress.



3. And a pink and red striped dress:



4. A 16th century german dress in yellow wool with red velvet trim, a brocade gollar and a cap from striped linen.


5. A Saxon court gown in the same materials as Vendela's, which she hasn't worn so that I have any photos of her in it (she was asleep during court in Visby).

6. A 16th century dress from thin brown wool. With tie in sleeves, which she almost never wore.


7. A pale lilac thin wool dress in a sort of generic looser 14th century dress, made from one of my old gowns. Plus a couple of shifts.

8. A blue wool 16th century jacket. Sadly I only have a photo from the back.


9. A gingerbread girl dress.


For Valeria:
1. I remade one of my old, old renaissance dresses for her:


2. A smocked shift with green embroidery on the smock. No photo.

3. A 1560s dress in dark red wool with guards in black wool.


4. A green flemish gown/coat to wear over her 16th century clothes when it's cold. Like Vendela's gown from the sam fabric made from an old outgrown tunic.


For Vendela:
1. A gothic fitted dress in navy thin wool, fully lined in lilac-pink thin linen.


2. An over gown in the same style, made from an old tunic in thick wool.


3. A Saxon court gown. And a smocked shift with embrodiery in red on the smock.




I've probably forgot some things.

I'm hopeless at following actual patterns, so I guess I'd better get good at making them up like that! Anyway, the effect is lovely.
