As I mentioned in my last post, I really needed a lot more sleeveless tops, as I only had one or two that still fit. I really loved the shape of the FibreMood Elza ever since I saw it in their magazine last spring, but I hadn't quite gotten around to sewing it. I'd traced in size L then, though, so I had to re-trace it again in XL now - not a huge deal since it's only four pattern pieces.

After I sewed The Kiss dress, I had a fair bit of fabric leftover, but it was in odd shapes due to the asymmetric cutting layout.

My final summer sewing this year came in the form of three separate teeshirts, all in the basic colours (pink is a basic, right??).

I own the very first Fibre Mood magazine but for some reason I’ve never made any of their patterns before. But when I saw this latest issue I bought it immediately and as soon as I got home from Cornwall I traced off four patterns from it – I want it all!! I even splurged on the viscose/wool jersey shown on the cover!!| blog.fehrtrade.com
