I have to say, I get to work with some pretty awesome ladies! Not only are they awesome at what they do, they are all super nice! When the BundleUp Ladies came up, I was so excited to get to sew some awesome patterns for myself! I needed some self-care sewing!
I, of course, thought I would be able to sew them all up in 4 days. I forgot to factor in kids and that I cannot sew anything when my 13 month old is awake. That meant I could sew from ~8 pm-bedtime! So, I am going to do this in stages as I really want to share these with you!
First up, I have Everything Your Mama Made Calla Lily Skirt! This pattern was super quick to sew, with just 1 pattern piece and the waistband to cut out! I did the shorter length since I am already so short! It is super comfortable to wear. I made it out of a rayon blend with a nice drape!
Next, I paired the EYMM Four Season Cardigan with the Jocole Skinny Pants!
Let's start with the Cardi! So fun and flirty! There are so many options, including a hood! I opted for no hood, so I can wear this and still wrap the baby! This was a sweater knit I had in my stash, and I was really hesitant to deal with the stripes, but it all turned out okay!
Now! I think my favorite pattern so far has to be these skinnies!!! I have wanted skinny jeans for YEARS but have found that the ones that fit my hips are usually too baggy in the calves, plus they are always way too long! When I found out Jocole was coming out with these (and a yoga waist to boot!), I literally started stalking her page for the testing call! As with all Jocole patterns, you get plenty of options! I did a basic pant out of stretch denim, and used the 26" inseam and they hit right on the ankle bone!
I LOVE these two patterns paired together!

Happy Sewing!
