One of the projects I was working on earlier this year was the Porcelynne Luna Robe.
It’s also available as a course and you get the pattern for free.
For my first test I made a medium, but realized right away that for my comfort I wanted it to be looser. I think part of that is I’m very used to wearing knits. This robe is a woven pattern, but can be used for knits as well. 
I used this cotton voile fabric. Oh! I love the bright colors.
Here’s my Luna robe.
I made a full-length robe. To me, nothing feels more luxurious than a full-length robe. Even though this is very light-weight, it will still feel wonderful.
It’s a lovely full wrap style. And it covers unlike some wrap tops or dress. This really covers and wraps.
I couldn’t resist to make a hair scrunchie out of some of the extra fabric I had. That’s what’s sitting on the top of my dress form.
The back has a lovely design to it. It’s not a rectangle pattern. There is style and design to this pattern, and honestly I love it!
Here is a closer view of the front.
Here is a closer view of the back.
This is really a lovely robe pattern. I actually think it’s the nicest robe pattern I’ve ever made.
I’m planning a matching nightgown, so stayed tuned.
Happy creating!
I know I say this all the time, but I think it’s also safe to say we all have lace addictions in the bra-making world. So… isn’t this pretty? I love the lace and the color. 
I loved the lace so much I had to use some on the power bar as well. Just a little more lace to love. 
And the back band. Just look at that power net. And matching hooks and eyes. 
This kit came with silver rings & sliders, but B,wear has rings & sliders in pistachio as well. I think it’s my new favorite color.
Isn’t this just the loveliest lace? Although it was a winter kit, I think it’s pretty all year long. 
I’ll be happily sewing again for a bit now. And for me! There might be some more testing coming. But I need some pretty new bras. Or I want some new ones. The new ones always feel nicer to wear. 
One pretty surprise I had when I opened this kit was this lovely strap elastic. I thought this design added such a nice touch. 
You can see that pretty design all along the the back too.
The one pair were Singer scissors. They were embroidery scissors too.
I found another smaller pair of embroidery scissors. Not a brand name this time, but the blades are nice and narrow. However, they’re only about 3″ long. The scissors I had were 5″, and again, they just don’t feel the same in my hand.
The handles didn’t look quite the same on this pair. 
At this point I was so thankful I’d taken a photo. So I kept looking. And I found them. 
I’m thrilled with how it turned out, but the pattern needs some tweaking.
I’ll be making adjustments to my pattern right away so I can make another Angie’s Twin. Honestly, this bra gives some great lift and shaping. 
My next project I won’t be sharing any time soon. I’m testing a pattern that will be released later this year, but I do hope to be back to my blog before the end of January with some things to share.
I was ready to sew but when I looked at my threat, I had no brown. So, a few days later I went to the store and got some brown serger thread.
I bought this 
I thought that was a pretty easy change, and it was. I added a pretty black lace to the edge and that was all it needed. 
Just look at this ruffle along the neckline. This was worth it. 
Of course I couldn’t throw out the precious fabric I’d cut off.
It’s just charming. I really do love the Watson pattern.
I tried these two laces, and decided on the 2nd one. I think it’s perfect! 
And lastly, Em and I went to a Grinch tree workshop. It was so fun.
This is something I’ve wanted to do for a few years now, and I just love it. We had such fun making ours.
This is a kit I bought last year and I just love it! It’s a teal color with ivory floral lace. It was a kit of the month in January or February, and I’d been saving it. 
I used some of the lace along the power bar. I love this look. The solid color behind the lace just gives it a really different look. The upper cup is sheer, but the power bar is detailed as well. 
The kit came with ivory power net, and an ivory findings kit. 
The ivory looks lovely with this teal color, and of course the lace is ivory, so it all goes together very well. 
This kit didn’t come with a bow, but it needed a bow! You know me – it has to be bow worthy. I’m going to need to stock up on bows.
This is the Margareta, again. And I’m thrilled again.
I adore this color! I have looked for a cotton Lycra the same color. I did find some that’s a bit darker, so I think some matchy-matchy will be next on the sewing table. 
The power net in this kit has a sheen or glimmer to it. It is very pretty. 
So far this pattern is winning the favorite pattern for me. We’ll see what happens when I revisit the Freja, but for now I’m thrilled to have a great fitting pattern.
This alteration did help, but I took a critical look again, and realized I could do more. I could take more out.
I did finish those channelings at the front and sides and took photos for all of you.
I adore this kit as well. It’s from B,wear. You can find it 
So, if you’re not completely happy with how your bra is fitting you, take a critical look and make one adjustment at a time.
