Because I have loved a pattern so much I did it again… or twice more… or three.
When the Kalle was first launched it was probably the most near perfect pattern. I loved it. But I longed for a sleeve hack. The original Kalle sleeve as is, was far too short for me. I tend to wear them layered under cardigans I even asked my beautiful Instagram community for help for a… Continue reading Kalle Shirt Dress – LONG SLEEVES!
I am very good at storage: this means that if you open my wardrobe, you will see a perfect capsule wardrobe with a few different trends… but with the hot weather, I have had to get the summer clothes out, and juggle it around.

Sometimes you just need to be reminded that you have/love a pattern. This is one of the reasons I love the… Continue reading Pattern Repeat: Helmi Hack
If you haven’t seen my previous Sudley make, check it out here. I love this pattern and do sing its many praises in that post.
