The Cattail Tank/Dress

February 26, 2020February 26, 2020 Trish YankeLeave a comment

Cattail was first drafted as a tank top to pair with the Tamarack Tights that Sherri had been planning since before Sofiona Designs first launched. As we got close to being ready to post our tester calls Sherri looked at the tank and said "I think this should be a (maxi) dress too". She was… Continue reading The Cattail Tank/Dress

A No-Twist Elastic Waistline

January 21, 2020 mamidesofionaLeave a comment

Who here can NOT stand twisted elastic bands?? I see all the hands up. I'm with you. It's ridiculous and annoying and too often becomes a piece of clothing that doesn't get worn. We want clothing that we can be comfy in and don't need to adjust every so often.

The Bag With a Mission

I’m so excited to introduce the Balsam Bag from Sofiona Designs! This pattern has been a true labor of love, and has taken months of work from many minds and several hands to be brought into existence.

The Tundra Top

Welcome to the fastest Sofiona sew thus far!! We are starting to be known as "clean, but not quick" and I'm totally good with that! But I also know that people want a quick make and it's been a regular conversation around Sofiona headquarters that we need to keep the quick sews in mind.

The Tide Is In

October 25, 2019December 30, 2019 mamidesofiona1 Comment

Tide is a halter-style knit dress or peplum with the feel of a pair of overalls with the straps coming over the shoulders and through the loops. It's fairly simple, but with just enough detail to make it something that I can really say is "me". My style. And I hope you love it too.

With the 3 possible locations for the flounces (or not), this is where you can make some choices that suit your style. I, personally, love the way I can make matching dresses without fully matching by choosing only certain flounces or using trim instead.

We haven't properly introduced our Starry Night PJs to you yet! And when we decided to do a sew-a-long featuring this pattern, we figured it was time! So have a read about this pattern and then we will discuss the sew-a-long with prize details from So Sew English Fabrics.

A new pattern that isn’t new. Just sized up and just in time for this girlie as she bumps out of kids’ sizing. Releases Friday #sofimisstamarack @sofionadesigns @blendedthreadfabrics #holliesgotthegoods
I’ve been sewing for myself a lot lately and it’s finally time to pull out the camera fabric that was preorder from @prairieloveknits quite awhile ago now. I’ve felt like a bit of a fraud wearing cameras when I’m not a real photographer but apparently I’m over that now. 😁📷 I’m also amazed at how fast the basic #sofimissclover comes together. @sofionadesigns
Another Tundra to help fill the closet and this one is summer ready. Fabric is a bamboo rib knit from @sitkafabrics and it is light and feels amazing. #sofimisstundra
The youngest is cleaning out her closet and found a collection of striped Dandelions. This means she needs more for summer and I need more stripes in my stash. @sofionadesigns #sofidandelion

Chicago….something something windy….

Is that really the title of this post?  Yes.  Yes it is.  I put that down, assuming something more cleaver would come to me by the time I was done.  And yet, here we are…. TRISH: We were now really ‘booking it’ to head west again.  Chicago was the last stop we had specific plans […]
