I really love all of the special details in Sofiona patterns and the unique style lines in their patterns create just the right spots for adding a little hand embroidery.
Poppy Apron
An apron is pretty basic piece and I didn't want to spend time creating a pattern that had already been done many times before. I mean, what do we really need? Some fabric on the front of us and some straps to keep it in place, right? I spent a significant amount of time looking through inspiration and then specifically at aprons online hoping to find some connection that wasn't already done.
Sun Dog Mitts
Sun dogs are an optical phenomenon that consists of a bright spot on one or both sides of the Sun within a 22° halo. They are a somewhat common occurrence here in the winter. When trying to come up with a name for these mitts I wanted something that reminded me of winter and potentially came… Continue reading Sun Dog Mitts
Forest for Girls
I have finally fixed my drafting issue with the girls' Forest dress and can release this pattern. Those who have been around for awhile know that we won't put a pattern out if we feel there's an issue we can fix.

Of course it still came as no surprise that people also started asking for a full sleeve option as the weather cooled even more.
Making More of Miss Fern
Today we have Parts 2 and 3 that are designed to go together with the Miss Fern for a variety of summer dresses.
The Forest Dress
It's summertime and I've been wanting to tackle a fitted woven pattern for awhile. I have NO idea what I was even thinking, but a gazillion months later and we finally have a pattern to share.

With summer coming I started thinking about camping, brighter sunlight hours and being outdoors. I know I like having a hat on hand (especially for beach days), but often can't figure out what to do with my hair since I prefer to throw it up in a bun/ponytail when it's hot out. I started to… Continue reading Vista Visor

Mink Shorts
Is it summer yet? I see all the signs that it's coming here. The sun rises earlier and brighter, there's the sound of running water as the snow piles visibly shrink by the day, the arctic bunnies are turning brown again, and we have a new summer-y pattern for you! It's not a new swimsuit… Continue reading Mink Shorts
