The Sarah skirt pattern

I am introducing another piece in the September collection – the Sarah skirt.

This skirt features a paneled design, a pencil silhouette which falls right below the knee and a kick pleat at the back for easy movement. It is a practical piece of clothing, with countless mixing options. This Sarah pencil skirt will look great with button down shirt and high heels for a working day, or with simple T shirt and sneakers for a date with your girlfriends.

You can either make it with just one color or print (like the example below that i have made):

… or with different colors for a color blocked skirt which creates the illusion of a longer and slimmer bottom part:

One advantage of this skirt is that it is easy to make. It will not take you too much time to finish this nice piece of garment. After printing, taping and cutting the pages of the PDF file, you will get the pattern pieces as follow:

The Lynn dress pattern

Hi guys,

After a long hiatus, I am back! I was so busy with my personal issues that kept coming one after one. I was really impatient because I could not sit in front of my computer and do my favorite activity of drafting patterns.

Today I just finished drafting and simulating the Lynn dress in the September collection. This is the sketch:

I decided that I will make this dress with stretch fabric to make it a friendly project for new sewists. It does not have waist or bust darts, and it hugs the body pretty closely.

Let’s see how it turns out on 3D models. This is it on a size M model:

And this is the Lynn dress on size 5XL model. OK, I must admit that I prefer curvy women and most of the time I think my dresses look better on them 🙂

Tada, the Devon dress is coming!

I have been working on the September collection for a few days – and that’s why there have been no new patterns this month yet. I plan to finish the whole collection before sharing them all to you.

But, there is always a ‘but’, the Devon dress is just too beautiful that I must share with you right away! Just look how it turns out from this sketch

to this 3D simulation (which is 95% accuracy), on a size M model:

And this is the Devon dress in size 5XL. Do you think that it flatters just any body?

Do you think that the Devon dress is lovable? I definitely think so – and I will make one for myself 🙂

Just wait, it will come in a few days, with a far wider size range than the designer stores.

Of course, this Devon dress will be available for free for a limited time. So please be quick before it has a price (a very low price 🙂)

If you are interested in making this darling, please visit my new home: Tiana's Closet

September 2019 collection

Hi guys,

I have been working like an amateur, well, with no plan in mind at all, so the efficiency has been low. In order to change this, I set up a plan to follow. Each month, I will create a collection of the garments that I want to make patterns – and I will try my best to finish these patterns on time.

Because this is the first month I work on a schedule, the collection only consists of a few pieces: 3 dresses, 1 top and 1 skirt. Of course, the pieces will be made for 2 size ranges: Regular and Petite, so there will be 10 patterns to make. I think it is good enough to keep me busy during my limited free time.

Now let’s have a look at the collection – sorry for my poor drawing skill, I wanted to make them look better, but failed 🙂

Devon dress

When sketching this Devon dress, I thought that it should be made with light weight crepe fabric, in light pastel color. It will be super feminine and elegant, and it will be so suitable for a fall wedding!

Lynn dress

The Lynn dress is totally different from the ladylike Devon dress. It should be made with stretchy fabric for a bodycon fit, and the sheer frilled hem will add some flirty feel to the whole outfit. I think I must make this one – in black!

Claire dress

The Claire dress is yet another girly one, with tiered skirt and mock neck. At first I thought it will be nice in green, now look again, I guess white can also be a pretty nice choice.

Amy top and Sarah skirt

Amy bat wing top and Sarah pencil skirt is a nice combo. Of course you can mix the Amy top with jeans, shorts or flared skirt, and mix Sarah skirt with tank top, button down shirt, or T-shirt. You have countless choice to create great outfits from these basic pieces.

Now, what do you think of my September collection? Do you think of making at least one for yourself? Please share your thought with me.

All new patterns will be posted on my new website: Tiana's Closet. Please visit for more patterns in the future!

Love,

Tiana
