As our kids are growing up, they are not yet physically ready or mature enough for adult clothes, and thus adult patterns. So we are in search of fun, functional, and fashionable pre-teen patterns to share with you. Our primary goal is to assist in making sewing for tweens a fun experience for the sewer and the model!Without Directionshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12707870003402755734noreply@blogger.comBlogger232125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1231680150606322141.post-32357632599821488382016-09-26T14:26:00.002-05:002016-09-26T14:36:54.171-05:00Pemberley Pullover Pattern Review<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Looking for a good Autumn Staple? Well you should check out the latest pattern by <a href="http://www.peekaboopatternshop.com/" target="_blank">Peek-A-Boo Patterns</a>. The adult version is called the <a href="http://www.peekaboopatternshop.com/pemberley-pullover/" target="_blank">Pemberley Pullover</a> and the girl version is called the <a href="http://www.peekaboopatternshop.com/piccadilly-pullover/" target="_blank">Piccadilly Pullover</a>. I had the chance to test the XXS of the adult version and this fit my size 12/14 wearing 13 year old.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Between the 2 patterns you run the gambit of sizes, with the girl version stopping at size 12 and the adult xxs seems to be about a 14.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JOf-ZDSAab0/V-lwx1X0egI/AAAAAAAAK9Q/BK_mZ4bKdp0v5BZQtHORe3iLURLUdwKwACLcB/s1600/IMG_4837.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JOf-ZDSAab0/V-lwx1X0egI/AAAAAAAAK9Q/BK_mZ4bKdp0v5BZQtHORe3iLURLUdwKwACLcB/s640/IMG_4837.JPG" width="426" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">As for the pullover itself, it has 2 neck finishes, just a band and a cowl seen here. The crossover at the band in the front is a nice added touch, which was not at all hard to do.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-4HVr_48TpJ4/V-lwzGrykaI/AAAAAAAAK9U/Rs5DTvB1_Jo1zPezik-408fKjarRvYyWwCLcB/s1600/IMG_4838.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-4HVr_48TpJ4/V-lwzGrykaI/AAAAAAAAK9U/Rs5DTvB1_Jo1zPezik-408fKjarRvYyWwCLcB/s640/IMG_4838.JPG" width="480" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The nice thing about the pattern is that with different types of fabric you could have a casual, sporty or dressier look. The main body requires anything with 25% stretch and the bands and neck finish works better with something with a little more stretch. I used a stretchy sweater like fabric that behaved similar to sweatshirt fleece for the body and just some knit that matched.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Sophia really liked the tunic length so she could wear it with her leggings.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This would be a great pattern for someone fairly new to knits, but ready to move on from pajamas and t-shirts. The instructions were easy to follow and the pattern came together easily.</span></div>

They come in the different lengths of short, medium and long for sleeve and pant length. I used my daughter's measurements to come up with a 7W and 14L, and they both fit well. She does need a wider shoulder than the 7, so next time will be some different pattern grading.<br />

Pattern sizing: 2T-16Y – I blended 7W and 14L. She will need a wider shoulder on the top for next version.<br />

<br />
<br />
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern when you were finished
sewing? Yes<br />
<br />
Were the instructions complete and easy to follow? Yes - she uses
illustrations and not photos. <br />
<br />
Fabric used: I used Modern Jersey from Spoonflower and a cotton/lycra knit for the top. A stretch denim for the shorts, with woven in the pockets.<br />
<br />

Did you alter the pattern in any way? I blended sizes. On the shorts I did not add in the elastic, as when I tried them on her they fit perfectly. She did say the back popped out a bit when she wore them, so next time I will put a little elastic just in the back. I also didn't do the welt pocket perfectly, which was totally my error. Late night sewing. The length on her shorts are in between the shortest and next shortest for the size 14. I had her try them on and put them at the length she wanted. She gets picky.<br />

<br />
Was there anything you disliked or would change? No<br />
<br />
Would you sew it again? I will definitely be sewing these again for Fall in the longer lengths.<br />

<br />
Do you consider the pattern beginner/intermediate/advanced? Advanced Beginner. The Chinos have a zipper fly and welt pockets, which isn't hard to do, but time consuming. Just follow the directions and you should be fine.<br />

It kind of reminds me of a mod style. The only issue she had with this, was she is uncomfortable in just a skirt. She is a skort kind of girl. I need to make up some shorts for her to wear underneath and then she will be all set!<br />

Patterns: <a href="http://blaverry.com/products/ollie" target="_blank">Ollie (top)</a> and <a href="http://blaverry.com/products/nina" target="_blank">Nina (skirt)</a><br />

Pattern sizing: 2T-16Y – I blended 6W and 14L, BUT I didn’t make the armhole
as long as the 14. I think it is a little long, so I cut mine a good inch
shorter. You might want to compare the pattern with another tank to determine
if you think it is long or not. This is consistent with the previous review. It might just be my daughter, too.<br />

<br />
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern when you were finished
sewing? Yes<br />
<br />
Were the instructions complete and easy to follow? Yes - she uses
illustrations and not photos.<br />
<br />
Fabric used: I used Modern Jersey from Spoonflower<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
Did you alter the pattern in any way? Just as I said above, blended sizes
and had a shorter armhole. I had to piece my back due to some fabric
challenges.<br />
<br />
Was there anything you disliked or would change? Change the armhole length
to a little shorter.<br />

<br />
Would you sew it again? Yes, but I want to add some shorts underneath and
turn it into a skort. My kid doesn’t like plain skirts, and feels
self-conscious in them.<br />

<br />
Would you recommend it to others? Yes.<br />
<br />
Do you consider the pattern beginner/intermediate/advanced? Beginner, if you
aren’t scared of knits. This was a pretty easy and quick sew.<br />

<br />
The first thing you need to know is that you will never, ever, ever find "a deal" with custom fabric printing. Even when they run that once-in-a-blue-moon sale, it is still more than a yard of fabric at Joann's - at full price.<br />
<br />
That being said, it is a great way to make your clothes unique, and even have your child help you design a fabric.<br />
<br />
In designing fabric, you need to know how to do a basic repeat, so it will seamlessly run together. <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Heather-Ross-Prints-Designs-Projects/dp/1584799951/ref=asap_bc?ie=UTF8" target="_blank">Heather Ross has a book</a> that details pattern designs, though I haven't read it. I figured out how to do it through some online tutorials and playing with designs in Photoshop.<br />
<br />
Which is the other thing, you need a design program. I use Photoshop, but I imagine you can use Illustrator, or any other program where you can have layers and can move around shapes individually.<br />
<br />
Now then, once you have a pattern, there are a few options for printing. In the U.S.A., there are a few commercial printers that will print small runs of fabric, with just swatches and fat quarters up to yardage. They have many different types of fabrics, too. The two that I have used are <a href="http://www.spoonflower.com/" target="_blank">Spoonflower</a> and <a href="http://www.myfabricdesigns.com/" target="_blank">MyFabricDesigns</a>.<br />
<br />
In sewing for my tween, I know that she likes soft knits. She prefers to wear things I make in those fabrics, and not something like quilting cotton.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Dress from my design in Modern Jersey from Spoonflower - pattern is the Saige dress from The Simple Life Pattern Company</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-XBqrs_Yti80/V7ciMdd2LFI/AAAAAAAAAr4/xMbw6hicoIgdhM7IVGCWkTMkw8-51IjrACLcB/s1600/22654463309_918af55796_o.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-XBqrs_Yti80/V7ciMdd2LFI/AAAAAAAAAr4/xMbw6hicoIgdhM7IVGCWkTMkw8-51IjrACLcB/s640/22654463309_918af55796_o.jpg" width="426" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
One thing I have found with both Spoonflower and MyFabricDesigns is that they have a hard time printing a non-faded looking black on a natural fiber base. That means a cotton knit with a black background will look like you have washed it 20 times already. If you want an all poly base, then you are good to go. They can usually print a decent black on those, so for Spoonflower I like the Modern Jersey option. It is a soft, drapey knit that can take a black.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
The sleeves here are Modern Jersey - good saturated colors. Top is the Star top from Blaverry.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-IzJCkk5bUDA/V7Mq9qb3jxI/AAAAAAAAArY/xaxTEc631PUVX3YHkwKmANnlR8CWIsOLQCPcB/s1600/20160808_9773.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-IzJCkk5bUDA/V7Mq9qb3jxI/AAAAAAAAArY/xaxTEc631PUVX3YHkwKmANnlR8CWIsOLQCPcB/s640/20160808_9773.JPG" width="424" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This shows the faded blacks on cotton bases at Spoonflower and MyFabricDesigns</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
I have also found that you won't necessarily end up with a yard of fabric. In printing, the fabric stretches. You would think that they would know this, but I have been shorted inches of fabric before even getting to the shrinkage from washing it. MyFabricDesigns was worse than Spoonflower on this, and when I contacted customer service they said they would look into it and then *crickets*. So, yeah, not a fan of them right now.<br />
<br />
You can order a swatch book, and see the quality of the fabric, too. That might help in choosing what base you would like to print your design on.<br />
<br />
Many are now offering a lycra that can be used for exercise leggings. I have some of that, but haven't made it up yet. It is more expensive, but a good quality from Spoonflower.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
These are all poly based fabrics - left to right - Sport lycra, Performance Knit, Modern Jersey - they look better in person - this was taken on my phone.</div>

<br />
If you are on Facebook, there are several custom fabric groups, where many of them get their fabric printed in China. I have gotten the name of a supplier there, but have yet to pull the trigger on that. It is a bit of a risk with going international. If you decide to buy from a custom fabric group, there is also a bit of a risk. Several in the last year have gone under, and Paypal protection has been the only way everyone did not lose all their money. If you do layaway, though, no protection.<br />
<br />
So! What to do?<br />
<br />
Well, I have followed some of the custom groups, and if they don't have delays and seem to get the fabric out right after getting it in, that is a good sign. You can definitely tell the ones that are more organized and seem to understand how to run a business. If there are any warning signs, just stay away. Here are a few I follow that have seemed to steer clear of the drama (there is a lot of drama in the custom fabric world):<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/znqdesigns/" target="_blank">Zenith and Quasar</a> - they have STEM type of fabrics. I have a "Fly Like A Girl" panel with Amelia Earnhardt that I have to make up into something for my daugther. It's on the list. Right now they have "Vote Like A Girl" pre-sale with Suffragettes on them. I need to figure out what I want from that run!</li>
<li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/SugarInkFabric/" target="_blank">Sugar Ink</a> - They tend to have some pop culture and fun prints that are relevant. I like the gamer prints they have had, but I also got a Le Petit Prince panel and print that I have no idea what to make with it, but my high school French teacher would have died for it. ;)</li>
<li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/Affordablefabricsandmore/" target="_blank">Affordable Fabrics</a> - Don't let the name fool you...it's the same price as the others. I got some Deadpool and Harry Potter fabric here. Nice quality and good customer service.</li>
<li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/SDMBTC/" target="_blank">Star Dust and Moon Beam Fabric</a> - I have a pre-order here for some music note fabric for my violin and violist. We'll see how it all works out with this one, but they seem fairly good so far.</li>
</ul>
<br />
You can first order retail from a host and see the type of fabric, and if you think it is worth the price. Pre-orders are how they all basically run, and you might not get retail unless you stalk their page right after they put it up. I have mostly purchased retail after getting burned by one host.<br />
<br />
This is a shirt I made from the <a href="https://www.sugarinkfabric.com/en/" target="_blank">Sugar Ink</a> custom fabric group. It is from the Fallout video game and perfect for a tween boy. A lot of these groups have busy prints. Use these sparingly, as they can make them look like pj's on older boys. The panels are definitely the way to go. I have another few shirts to make for my son out of panels. The pattern here is a modified Ottobre pattern. <br />

I haven't sewn a ton for my daughter this summer as both my kids have kept us busy with their sports. We need to have some back to school clothes, though!<br />
<br />
<br />
This top is made for wovens and it is made to be reversible. I made it to have more of a lining, so this not reversible. The leggings she is wearing are from Blaverry, as well. She is reworking her old patterns (this top has been redone), so I would hold off on those right now. Once they have been redone, hopefully I will get to make them up and can give a review on them.<br />

Pattern sizing: 2T-16Y – I blended 7W and 14L, BUT I didn’t make the armhole
as long as the 14. I think it is a little long, so I cut mine a good inch
shorter. You might want to compare the pattern with another tank to determine
if you think it is long or not.<br />
<br />

<br /></div>
<br />
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern when you were finished
sewing? Yes<br />
<br />
Were the instructions complete and easy to follow? Yes - she uses
illustrations and not photos. The only halfway difficult thing is the shirring at the upper chest (hard to see on my photos), but that is fairly simple to do.<br />
<br />
Fabric used: Laser cut woven and a light-weight silver fabric for the lining. Both were non-stretch.<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
Did you alter the pattern in any way? I blended sizes
and had a shorter armhole. I also used ribbon for the ruching at the shoulder instead of a fabric piece.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
Was there anything you disliked or would change? Change the armhole length
to a little shorter.<br />
<br />
Would you sew it again? Yes. This is a cute top. Not sure I would make it as a dress for my daughter, as it seems a bit too young for a tween as a dress. I think it is very cute as a top or tunic, though.<br />

Does the pattern include layers for easy printing? Yes<br />
<br />
Seam allowance used in the pattern? 3/8”<br />
<br />
Is the pattern cut or no cut pages? Cut<br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;">She has a tiny waist so it is really hard to find store bought clothing that fits her well. :) She has pretty amazing designs and I need to learn to digitize patterns. She wants to have a clothing line for tweens and teens. :) She is a pretty cool kid. LOL </span></div>

Well, it's knit, so my kid is all over that. They are comfortable pants for her to wear, and the "jogger" style is pretty popular right now. It went together very easy. I added silver beads to the end of the cording to make it look fancy. I made a 12 long and 10 wide for my tall skinny kid. They have some room to grow, so that is nice.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I used a black cotton lycra knit, and the black/white knit is one I designed and had custom printed.<br /><div>

I didn’t have any issues with this pattern. Make sure you interface the buttonhole area on the knit - that is important. You also need to watch the ribbing placement on the pocket. Mine were a little lopsided since my serger cut off one side more than the other. Try to be more careful than I was. </div>

Yes. You can make your tween stylish jeans that they will want to wear! Kristi over at <a href="https://kopykatkidz.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">Kopy Kat Kidz</a> has come back to introduce us to a jean pattern by Blaverry. Thank you Kristi for sharing with us.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Name of the pattern:</b><br />
<br />
The pattern I’m using for this review is the Koko Skinny Jeans.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-164z3d9Ylto/VxGfANXNPDI/AAAAAAAAgvs/AazeSAaa5zwnya1UHN1AnWP_Z1qunGguQCKgB/s1600/DSCN6813.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Blaverry sewing pattern" border="0" height="640" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-164z3d9Ylto/VxGfANXNPDI/AAAAAAAAgvs/AazeSAaa5zwnya1UHN1AnWP_Z1qunGguQCKgB/s640/DSCN6813.JPG" title="Pattern review of Koko Skinny Jean" width="480" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
<b>Pattern Source:</b><br />
<br />
This pattern is from the company Blaverry found at the <a href="http://blaverry.com/" target="_blank">online store</a>.<br />
<br />
<b>Sizes available:</b><br />
<br />
2T to 16<br />
<br />
<b>Special materials required:</b><br />
<br />
The extra things I needed were a jeans zipper and jeans needle. You could also use top-stitching thread and rivets but I didn’t.<br />
<br />
<b>Skill level required:</b><br />
<br />
I think this is probably an intermediate pattern to sew up. I say this because zipper installations can feel a little tricky if you haven’t done them before and sewing jeans can seem overwhelming because there are quite a few steps. Although now that I’m made several pairs of jeans it’s not that tough if you just go step by step and follow the pattern instructions carefully.<br />

<br />
<br />
<b>How you came to choose the pattern:</b><br />
<br />
I chose this pattern because I had been looking for a skinny pair of jeans for my daughter that didn’t<br />
include elastic in the waist (since she doesn’t appreciate that.) And that truly look skinny and not just slim. She’s very picky about her jeans, so if I am going to sew some they have to be near perfect in that department!<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Look at that professional zipper fly!</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<b>Did you deviate from the pattern? If yes, how?</b><br />
<br />
I made them Capri length because that was all the fabric I had left over from my jeans. Since this was my first pair of them I didn’t want to buy new fabric. I also didn’t add the penny pocket or the rivets. <br />
<br />
You can include button hole elastic in the waistband to make it adjustable, but I just sized down one size and made sure they fit before I finished up the waistband. I also took in the legs a little (maybe ½”) to get the fit just perfect on her little legs.<br />
<br />
<b>Good:</b><br />
<br />
The pocket installation is different than I have ever done but it is so professional looking. I included a few pictures. The wonderful thing about having the pocket like this is that it doesn’t pull out or bunch up like some pockets do. I also loved how appropriately sized the back pockets are. They aren’t too big or small, just perfect. Also you can print only the size you need so you don’t have to differentiate between all the size lines. I love that feature in a pattern.<br />

<br />
<br />
<b>Bad:</b><br />
<br />
I think zipper installation is sometimes hard to wrap your brain around in general, but taking it slow and following the instructions carefully made for a great installation.<br />
<br />
<b>Ugly:</b><br />
<br />
None, this was a wonderful pattern!<br />
<br />
<b>Overall pattern rating:</b><br />
<br />
I am giving this pattern a top score of five bolts because the pattern was fantastic and the fit turned out great. She has <br />

Thank you April for sharing this very cute and tween friendly dress!<br />

<div class="Body">
Hello. I’m April. I live in Lancaster County, Pa with my husband
and three children (11, 11 and 8). I first started sewing when I got married.
It was always household things like curtains or gifts. I never in a million
years thought that I would sew clothing. I credit the online sewing community
and PDF’s for taking me to the next step and constantly challenging me. I love
creating things for my children and occasionally for myself. The best part is
that they still enjoy wearing it. Although I am not a blogger you can find me
on Instagram- aaspinetti<o:p></o:p></div>

I could see the zipper being intimidating if you haven't done one before.

would be the perfect pattern to start with if it was your first. </span><br />

<b>How you came to choose the pattern</b>: This pattern caught my
eye online (PDF sewing group on Facebook) among fellow sewists. There are so
many different versions as well as a wide size range. I definitely was sold
when I saw that it went up to size 12. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="Body">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="Body">
<i>Did you deviate from the
pattern? If yes, how?</i> I did not deviate from the pattern at all. I
made it twice. The first was the size 12 for my oldest daughter and then a size
6 for my youngest. Both times I followed the measurements and instructions
exactly.</div>

<br />
<div class="Body">
<b><span lang="NL">Good</span></b>: I
love the versatility this pattern offers. The color blocking allows you to play
around with color and design. However, even without the color blocking, the
shape of the dress speaks volumes. The different fabrics called for allow you
to make it a great dress for colder weather (wool with boots) as well as a
classic summer dress. The exposed zipper is my favorite part. It really does
make the back pop with that small but bold detail. I am excited to try more
when I get my hands on some unique zippers. This was my first exposed zipper.
The instructions were super clear, making it a breeze. The entire pattern came
together easily. The instructions and photographs made construction and
interpretation from start to finish a simple and successful sew. I was worried
about the fit in the chest area since she is starting to develop. Turns out the
fit was dead on. I am looking forward to tackling more Heidi and Finn patterns
in the future. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="Body">
<br /></div>
<div class="Body">
<b>Bad</b>: I felt like the bottom was a little too bulky or wide
in the size 12. Almost like the proportions were off a bit. However, I used a
faux suede (pink) for the color blocking potion on the bottom. It could be that
this fabric is contributing to the bulk. I really wanted it to be a classic all
grey dress. The recipient had different ideas ;) The pink was our compromise.
Even though it seems a bit big on the bottom/sides I am confident that it will
be worn and we might even have some growing room. I do not feel that this is an
issue at all in the size 6. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="Body">
<br /></div>
<div class="Body">
<b>Ugly</b>: She really loves it and is happy to wear it. I
consider this a win. No uglies here ;) <o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div class="Body">
<b>Overall pattern rating</b>: I give this pattern 4 bolts. <o:p></o:p></div>

Hello there! I have another pattern from Sofilantjes today. This was one that I did the pre-testing on it. We went through a few changes before it went to the regular testers, and I think it turned out to be a very nicely written pattern. It has several options to it, and it can be mashed together with the <a href="https://www.sofilantjes.com/product/hibernis-cowl-shirt-pattern-en/" target="_blank">Hibernis tunic and top</a>. You can use the neckline and sleeve options interchangeably.</div>

This is a nice tunic length top to use for
colorblocking. I really liked the hood
option, and I did all of mine with that one. There is also the buttoned cowl option, as
well. It went together super fast, and
the pattern pieces fit together well. </div>

<b>Issues:</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I didn’t have any issues with this pattern, but I did see a
few people that seemed confused. Those
may be more their issues, than the pattern, so these are more things to
watch.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When putting on the cowl, make sure the overlap is correct
so it can button. I have seen several
photos where the overlap was going in the wrong direction, so the buttonholes
were on the bottom and you would have to have the cute buttons underneath or
just not functional buttonholes.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The cap sleeve was put on incorrectly for a few of the
people. There isn't really a picture of the cap sleeve, so that might be an issue on this. It has an odd shape to it. Make sure you match up the cap sleeve head to the regular sleeve head to see what side to use, if you are confused. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Overall pattern
rating</b>:<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This is a great pattern.
I think the waist tabs are a little too juvenile, but that may just be
my taste. I think the hooded option is
probably the most tween friendly part of this pattern.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
4.5 bolts for this one. I think the confusing cap sleeve probably needs a mention.</div>

I (Major Moma) first heard about the <a href="https://jalie.com/jalie3248-drop-pocket-cardigan-pdf-pattern-414">Drop Pocket Cardigan</a> at on the blog <a href="https://jalie.com/jalie3248-drop-pocket-cardigan-pdf-pattern-414">Baste and Gather</a>. I thought it would be a good addition to my girl's wardrobe and something I can sew over and over again.<br />

<b>Special materials
required</b>: The drop pocket cardigan is designed for knit fabrics and has a slim fit on the arm so you cannot deviate from using a knit. Also, the front is doubled up so you should probably veer away from anything too bulky. Jalie recommends k<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 19.2px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">nit with 40% stretch across the grain and 20% in the length.</span></span><br />

<b>Skill level required</b>: The construction of the front was not obvious to me and I had to read the instructions a couple of time. So, I would not recommend this pattern to beginners.

Well, in order to bring a little variety to my daughter's back to school wardrobe I decided to break out that pattern.<br />

Last time, Sally sewed up a beautiful white short sleeve version. This time I sewed up a long sleeve version. My daughter is thin so I made the width to her measurements. Next time I will not slim it down so that it is not so fitted.<br />

My daughter loves to wear a hoodie or other type of comfy jacket during the winter. It is part of her standard winter uniform. And I like the idea of them because in the spring they can be a light jacket. So when JoAnns had their big door buster sales during the holidays on fleece, I bought a bunch thinking I would use it for her. My first use was grabbing a pattern I bought for me. See, she is nearly as tall as me now so I am starting to reach for the XXS in women's sizes. Are there any of you guys doing the same? </div>

<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Sizes available</b>: This is a women's not a child pattern. So it will work for the larger tweens. It comes in the sizes XXS to XXXL (00-24) but makes it nice for tweens, is that it also has a cutting line for petite, regular or tall. I used the XXS, petite size and it fit my 5'2" daughter quite well.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Special materials
required</b>: It is a fleece jacket so you will want some sort of fleece or sweatshirt material. You also need a separating sport zipper and two regular zippers for the pockets.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Skill level required</b>: The pattern has more pieces than most hoodies but the instructions are straight forward and really quite simple. I would classify it as an advanced beginner project. I got ahead of myself and did not stop to read some instructions while I was sewing the side panels and as a result, I messed up the pockets. The pocket openings are in the side seam between the front and side front panel. This is really a great construction technique because you get a welt pocket affect without the work of a welt pocket. It really keeps it beginner friendly. BUT, since I skipped that step and serged the seam, I just went ahead and made welt pockets.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>How you came to
choose the pattern</b>: I bought this pattern when it first came out last year for myself, but just as my daughter has started to steal my shoes, she is now growing into my sewing patterns. (But not really ... there is NO way I would fit in an XXS.)</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Good</b>: Without raising the difficulty of the sewing, there are great details to this jacket. I loved the zipper guard and the flat pockets. It even reminded you to make a little hanging loop at the neckline. The panels give it a nice shape and give opportunities to color block. I got this fleece in the remnant section and thus was able to use those panels to make two remnants work for one great jacket.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Bad</b>: Nothing. I thoroughly loved sewing this jacket and Abi has been wearing it at least three days a week. WIN!<o:p></o:p></div>

One of our favorite things here at Sew Cool is to match up pattern designers who <i>design </i>for tweens and those who <i>sew </i>for tweens. And today we get to do that by having a designer spotlight on<a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/WinterWearDesigns" target="_blank"> Winter Wear Designs</a>. Suzanne designs for all ages and sizes so her patterns have a great size range but also a great style range. She has great patterns for boys and girls so no matter who you are sewing for, I am sure you will find a good pattern at Winter Wear Designs. Over the holidays we interviewed Suzanne and here is what she has to say about Winter Wear and designing for tweens. (at the end of the post we have a special discount for our readers)<br />

<h4>
How would you describe the Winter Wear brand? What makes it unique?</h4>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The Winter Wear brand is classic, wearable, and all about
the details. When it comes to my kids, I
want them to be these cute adorable little models.... and then I remember that
they have to actually WEAR the clothing... it needs to fit well and be stylish
and yet they need to be able to keep it on for longer than the 20 minutes of a
photoshoot. For this reason, I really
think about the details of how my garments are finished and that makes all the
difference in the final look and feel.<o:p></o:p></div>

<br />
<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When it comes to my women's patterns, I am very body
conscious. All of my women's patterns
talk about body shape and how to adjust and alter to best flatter the body God
gave you. For tweens who are starting to
develop and change in shape, this can be especially useful. I want all of my customers to feel great when
they put on a garment that they have sewn for themselves, it might take some
time figuring out your body, but when you start sewing clothes you LOVE it is
an amazing transformation.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
None of my patterns are really hard to sew, but the details
can be a bit time consuming. I promise
though - they are worth it!<o:p></o:p></div>

I have been running Winter Wear Designs for a year and a half, but I have been designing
since I was in college. I worked as a
teaching assistant in the costume shop for my theatre department in
college. I was able to take classes in

What made you decide to be a pattern designer? </h4>

<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Robin Hill...... Hahahahah, no but seriously. She saw all the things that I was creating
for my kids and kept asking me about it.
Finally she lined up my writing a full review of Lauren Dahl's Pattern
Workshop for Pattern Revolution by taking the class. I think she knew that if I branched into the
digital ends of design (which really didn't exist when I was in school) that
there would be no stopping me. And she
was right ;o)<o:p></o:p></div>

What is your inspiration?</h4>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
I'd love to give a lofty answer about art and the fresh
breeze of sea salt off the ocean, but I live in Central PA and my current art
immersion is scrubbing my kids' crayola masterpieces off the wall (but hey, we
graduated from the poo-caso stage). I am
inspired by what I want... I want to dress my kids in really expensive clothes
that I could never afford off the runways, I want to have new and current
clothing for myself that fits me right - and sadly that rarely happens for me
with store bought. I want clothes to
make women smile and keep kids running and playing. These wants inspire me constantly, and I'll
never have time to get on paper all the things I WANT to design.<o:p></o:p></div>

What do you find to be the most challenging part of
designing pdf patterns?</h4>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Math - I really and not great at math, and that can get me
in trouble with basic elements in the pattern design process. Beyond that, just finding the time. With three littles underfoot, I deal with a
lot of interruptions that can slow down the process.<o:p></o:p></div>

<h4>
So many designers shy away from the larger children’s sizes;
what motivated you to size up to 14yr?</h4>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Well, with a 3 year old who wears a size 6x and a 4 year old
who is between a 7/8, it just made sense.
As I was starting to draft patterns I constantly saw parents of older
children begging for bigger sizes, and then one day I saw a sweet mom asking
how to grade up a pattern for her 7 year old who needed a size 12. This was still a little girl who needed cute
clothes that would fit her properly. I
will be that mom in just a few years, so I just decided there and then that all
my patterns would go up to a 14. I'm
currently looking at expanding that to a 16 for future patterns, but haven't
decided yet. All of my patterns come
with suggestions for combining sizes to get a perfect fit.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<h4>
You have a few patterns for women that start at size 00;
would those work for a tween?</h4>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
Yep!!! My women's
patterns are designed for curves, but with young girls developing at younger
ages, many tween moms are finding themselves with curves that children's
patterns aren't designed for. Moving up
to small women's sizes will actually be more flattering and comfortable for
these budding figures.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
Ottobre is a European magazine so it is published with
European sizing. This threw me for a
loop when I first started sewing from it because using my kid’s measurements to
figure out sizing put them all over the place.
Then I found out that the sizes roughly equate to their height in
centimeters. This made my life much
easier! The pattern comes in sizes 128 –
170 cm. Abby is about a size 10/12 and I
sewed up a 140cm based on her height and it fits her perfectly. If I would have sewn her pants I might have
based the size on her waist measurement and added length.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
The only special material I needed was a separating zipper,
however if you want to make it just like the pattern you also need two zippers
for the pockets, two grommets (and a little bit of interfacing) and flat cotton
cord. I don’t know if it’s a special
material, but I did use a size 14 stretch/knit needle for sewing as well.<o:p></o:p></div>

<b>Skill level required</b>:<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I think this is probably an intermediate pattern to sew
up. The thing that makes it lean more
toward intermediate is the zipper installation and the fact that Ottobre is
catering to people who already know how to sew.
What I mean is that there are no pictures of the construction. If you have sewed up a hoodie before you will
not have any problems following Ottobre instructions. Also the princess seams in the front and back
mean that you are sewing curves together instead of straight lines which can be
a little trickier.<o:p></o:p></div>

<b>How you came to
choose the pattern</b>:<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
In the case of this garment the fabric came first. Abby and I were at JoAnn getting some
microfleece for a coat for me (I finally got it sew and you can see us pictured
in our hoodies. Mine is also Ottobre
Women’s, issue 5/14, very similar but with no hood. The sizing women starts at a European 34
which is about a U.S. size 4. This could
also be a great option for the older tween/teen) and she found this light blue
microfleece. Since I love to sew for my
kids and she did need another hoodie for fall we bought some. Then we talked about hoodies and I decided to
make this one. I love the princess
seaming it has. I think it elevates the
regular boxy hoodie to a slimmer fit one for tween/teen girls.<o:p></o:p></div>

I had the lovely opportunity to be a part of the <a href="https://oliverands.com/community/blog/2015/11/swingset-skirt-sew-along-starts-today.html" target="_blank">Sew-a-long over at Oliver & s</a> for the <a href="https://oliverands.com/category/oliver-and-s-patterns.html" target="_blank">Swingset Skirt</a> and what a lot of fun it was! As a panelist I was asked to sew up the skirt and not only give it a go, but add whatever I wanted. My plan was to sew up the skirt as part of my girl's holiday outfits...but then my youngest, Clara, got asked to help lead the Pledge of Allegiance for the Veteran's Day Program at the high school. I looked through her closet and realized that she really didn't have any 'nice' red, white and blue clothes (except for the <a href="http://www.ajennuinelife.com/product/moto-jacket" target="_blank">Moto Jacket</a> by Jennuine Designs, which I blogged about <a href="http://daisy-chaincreations.blogspot.com/2015/06/moto-jacket-by-jennuine-design.html" target="_blank">here</a>). What to do? Why, give the <a href="https://oliverands.com/category/oliver-and-s-patterns.html" target="_blank">Swingset Skirt</a> a test run before hitting the fancy fabric, of course!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8Uc8lxqlXDg/Vk1MZmp4AHI/AAAAAAAAJKQ/MpPmu7bmeTs/s1600/20151111_092226%257E2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8Uc8lxqlXDg/Vk1MZmp4AHI/AAAAAAAAJKQ/MpPmu7bmeTs/s640/20151111_092226%257E2.jpg" width="394" /></a></div>

This is my finished 'patriotic' Swingset Skirt. I pretty much made it as is, except I added a couple of inches to the underskirt, because I wanted the red and white stripes to peak through and I used twill tape for the draw string instead of making my own. The thing I learned by doing a run through was that I needed to disregard the instruction of putting right sides together to sew the over skirt to the underskirt...by doing this your seams will end up on the outside (the side that will be seen when sticking out) of the skirt, which is not what I wanted. But all in all, I love it, she loves it so it's a win/win!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Up next were there fancy skirts {insert disclaimer that these pictures are not my best...the only day I had to take pictures outside this week was the day it was raining cats and dogs. I put it off and was only able to get quick early morning before the mad rush to school shots} </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They do love how they turned out though and I can't wait to finish the shirts to go with them!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>As for the pattern</b>: <a href="https://oliverands.com/category/oliver-and-s-patterns.html" target="_blank">Swingset Skirt by Oliver & s</a> which now goes up to size 14!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is a very straight forward pattern and is quite simple...but the possibilities are endless. People have added pockets, played with the under/over skirt combination, used interesting fabrics and much more. It worked well with the light weight wool I used in the patriotic skirt as well as the fancy fabrics for these 2 skirts.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Materials</b>: Besides the 2 fabrics, you also need elastic...that's it! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-MDMIprsTZeA/Vk1MKyiSWMI/AAAAAAAAJJg/hYs9_rLe8Xk/s1600/IMG_3497.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-MDMIprsTZeA/Vk1MKyiSWMI/AAAAAAAAJJg/hYs9_rLe8Xk/s640/IMG_3497.JPG" width="272" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I deviated a little from the pattern/instructions in that I played with the length of the skirts a little and I used ribbon instead of making my own drawstring tie. I also added a little ribbon in between the two skirts to gather it up on one side...it turns out the my youngest daughter loves it and the other with the snow flake overlay does not, so it might be taken off that one. I also realized that shear fabrics would not work well with a casing...duh, the elastic would show through...so I had to deviate a little more by creating a pseudo waistband. I just cut the top 3 inches of the over skirt from my solid fabric, attached it to the over skirt and then proceeded as per the instructions...pretty simple fix, really. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>The Good: </b>Easy versatile pattern that you can buy in <a href="https://oliverands.com/category/oliver-and-s-patterns.html" target="_blank">paper or pdf form from the Oliver & S website</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It does not require any super sewing skills...just a great beginners pattern. It is easy to make and doesn't take a ton of fabric. But with a little imagination you could make this skirt countless ways! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DXWyq1HQpO4/Vk1MUdt2a4I/AAAAAAAAJKA/daShPELahg0/s1600/IMG_3505.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DXWyq1HQpO4/Vk1MUdt2a4I/AAAAAAAAJKA/daShPELahg0/s640/IMG_3505.JPG" width="468" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
No bad or ugly to report, so I give this one <b>5 bolts</b> for a great beginner pattern that is VERY versatile!</div>

In August, I (Major Moma) shared my <a href="http://sewcoolforthetweenscene.blogspot.com/2015/08/back-to-school-sewing-plan.html" target="_blank">sewing plan</a> for my 11 year old's school wardrobe. Today I will review one of the tops in that plan. It turned out every bit as great as I hoped and it will be a staple in my sewing. It is a dolman top which is quite trendy. On an installment of Would They Wear That, I looked at a <a href="http://sewcoolforthetweenscene.blogspot.com/2015/09/would-they-wear-that-dolman-tops.html" target="_blank">few dolman tops a</a>nd this was one of the ones I decided to try myself.<br />

<b>Pattern Source</b>: Jalie is a Canadian pattern company. They sell both paper and pdf patterns and have a wide variety of styles. If you need dance wear, they seem to specialize in that genre of clothing.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Sizes available</b>: This, like many of Jalie's patterns comes in a HUGE range of sizes from little girls to plus size women. The Jalie 3352 comes in 27 sizes so no matter who you are sewing for, you could use this pattern.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Special materials
required</b>: This was a simple knit top but the pattern does recommend a knit with at least a 40% stretch. I think I will try one for me with knit on the sleeves.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Skill level required</b>: This is certainly a beginner level pattern and if you are new to knits, a great one for you to start with ... especially if you go with the short sleeve version because the sleeves are cut on!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>How you came to
choose the pattern</b>: I have wanted to try a Jalie pattern for a long time and this seemed like a good one to try. I love a dolman top so I bought it as much for me as for my tween.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Good</b>: This pattern was so easy and a quick sew. It is also right on trend and helps make a tee shirt not so basic.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Bad</b>: Jalie patterns do not have extensive instructions. There are step by step directions but not a lot of pictures. If you are new to sewing, I highly recommend you read all the instructions a couple of times before you start, just so you understand everything. The Jalie instructions are not near as sparse as a Burda pattern, but there is not not a lot of hand holding.<o:p></o:p></div>

<br />
You may have seen companies that will print the fabric of your own design on various types of fabric. And they usually also have other's designs that you can simply choose from. Well, there is a new company out there called <a href="https://myfabricdesigns.com/">My Fabric Designs</a> and they sent us one yard of basic cotton woven fabric. My Fabric Designs actually has 26 types of fabrics ranging from voile, to knits, pant weights! Just think of the coordinating outfits you could make using the same print on different fabric types. The price of these custom fabrics are not inexpensive but the designs are quite unique and you have so many options to make sure it is the <i><b>perfect </b></i>fabric for a special project.<br />
<br />
I had my daughter search through the site and pick the print, since I would be sewing it for her. There were a TON to choose from! I would have had a horrible time picking one. There were all sorts of different styles so I am sure you all will something that appeals to you. (And, in case you are considering checking out My Fabric Designs' selection, make sure you get to the bottom of this post because we have a coupon code and a give away!)<br />

<br />
She picked a print with many different nautical compasses with shades of greens and blues. When it arrived, I washed it up to see what it was like. It did shrink a little, but not bad for a cotton and I still had over 35 inches with 54 inches wide.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
It had such a large bold design, I thought it would be good to not cut it up to much and find a pattern that would allow it to simply shine. After I looked a bit online, I realized I already owned the right pattern but had yet to sew it.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Bad</b>: My tween was a bit unsure about it because it was such a full skirt. She no longer desires great twirl factor or fancy gathers and ruffles ... she thinks she has grown out of them. So, you need to talk to your tween before sewing it. By the end of the day, she was satisfied with it but I am not how often she will fish it out of the closet.<o:p></o:p><br />
