These pants were first thought up as one part of a full outfit after perusing a couple online RTW stores to see what teens were buying these days. There were so many fitted crop top options being offered, but we didn't feel inspired to make a pattern for one ourselves. So what then? How about… Continue reading Miss Wood Lily
The Heron Shirt
The Heron shirt is another super simple and remarkably quick make. People might need to start reconsidering labelling Sofiona as only "complicated" makes. LOL
The Miss Limestone Coat/Cardigan
We fell in love with the general shape of the Miss Limestone right from the start but went back and forth on whether it should be a coat or a cardigan. In the end we decided there HAD to be a way to make it work as either one. As a coat it works well… Continue reading The Miss Limestone Coat/Cardigan
Is Birch the New Tundra??
We have Birch and with its relaxed fit and quick construction my own closet is starting to show that Tundra has some competition.
Annnnd Here Comes Miss Haze… Fashionably Late
This post is geared specifically towards the Miss Haze and things that matter to the junior miss size range.
Trail Joggers
For quite a while now we've had people ask us to please make a jogger in the Junior Miss size range (since we already have the Railway Joggers in our girls size range).

A Woven Dress Called Haze
This newest pattern is another woven dress for the store. Woven dresses have never been the “Sofiona thing”, but every once in awhile we get in the mood for a dress. This one was inspired by linen...
Bedrock Skirt

(Did you catch what I did there? "foundation"....."bedrock" skirt.......if no one else I at least entertain myself.) Photo: Trish The… Continue reading Bedrock Skirt
Such a Cute Cloudberry Collection
We don't often have (take) the time to work on extra projects. The time it takes just to work on the ideas in our heads is non-existent so we rarely feel like shifting focus. But as we are coming close to 10,000 members in our Sofiona Sewing Group on Facebook, we did feel like doing… Continue reading Such a Cute Cloudberry Collection
Miss Tamarack: I said “no” first
I said no every time someone asked me if the Tamarack tights would be moved into the junior miss size chart. And I meant it, actually. I didn't think I could do it, to be honest, and yet here we are and I feel like our first foray into junior miss tights is making me feel more confident. I need to remember these moments are part of a journey and what overwhelms me today may not be so intimidating in a year or so. Timing really is everything.
