There is a new Fibre Mood * released and I got to sew a great sweater from it, the Ellis sweater . The Ellis sweater is very quick sew but stands out because of the split neckband and waistband, such a fun detail! And of course the diagonal colour block is right up my alley. Our girl picked out the fabric herself, at least the fireworks fabric. I picked out the matching fabric. The print works well with the large piece. The sweater is a bit roomy, that is because there is a size 6 and a size 8 and she doesn't fit in the size 6, but the size 8 is still a bit big on her. Well she can grow into it. At textielstad I bought a couple of multicolour threads . I felt this was the perfect project to try it out and indeed it matches the colours in the sweater very well.

A couple of weeks ago our eldest was wearing this dress from her (when her girls outgrow her handmade clothing we receive it 😊). And our eldest loves that dress, especially because of the wrap element (I also think she loves the retro element of the fabric although she doesn't realise that yet). So I thought the It's a wrap dress from Made by Runi would be a perfect match.
Our eldest even picked out the fabric for the dress, so there is nothing in the way of this dress becoming a favourite. The dress has the option of adding the ruffle or leaving the ruffle off (there are two length for with or without the ruffle). I opted for adding a ruffle to the skirt only. There is also the possibility of adding a ruffle to the top bodice.
The bodice is staying put with a snap in the inside of the dress, which is great, because I have the experience that wrap dresses often tend to shift.
