Sometimes simplicity is the winning ticket. That’s how I feel about the new Itch to Stitch pattern, the Sibiu Top. The Sibiu is a batwing top that is quick to make and easy to wear. Many of my testers volunteered to make multiple; I guess it’s also very addictive!For one week (through February 9, 2022), […]
Let’s be honest. I usually don’t think about sewing myself any skirts. Skirts are less glamorous than, let’s say, dresses, or even blouses. But skirts can be such a workhorse of your wardrobe and they can be super chic. Especially a denim-style skirt! It’s a not trendy item that you throw to the back of […]
Happy new year! I don’t usually make new year’s resolutions. However, I sometimes do have ideas about what I would like more in the new year. I sincerely hope that the new year brings more health, stability, peace, and prosperity to the world. On a personal level, I wish that I have a more positive […]
Itch to Stitch is adding this new pattern, the Poas Jacket, to its lineup! I think this little cropped jacket looks great on everyone. You can take a look at the testers’ photos below.

Shirring with elastic thread is easier than it looks. Sure, it does take some time, but you can succeed without a whole lot of practice. Even if you think it does not look perfect, the truth is that when the garment is worn, any imperfection will not be visible. You can put shirring on just […]
The Varzim Overalls pattern seems to be a departure from my usual style, isn’t it? But when I first saw a pair of overall joggers, I was so enamored that I knew I must have a pattern. I imagined that when the leaves turned yellow and the trees got bare, these jogger overalls would keep […]
Over the years of sewing, I have gotten to know what self-made garments I wear the most. I call them my “best value garments” because they give me the highest return on investment in sewing time and material. It’s a garment the new Foz Top is such a pattern. It’s a garment that I can wear […]

Originally released in 2020 with sizes 00 to 20, the Celeste Dress is one of the most popular patterns at Itch to Stitch. Personally, I lived in the dress during the summer of 2020. It’s cute, comfortable, and flattering. I can’t ask for more! So I decided to expand the size range to size 40. […]
It’s great that for some of us, summer is finally (and solidly) here! I’ve experienced temperatures from 65°F to 108°F (18°C to 42°C) in various places in the last month! I found that a good tank top is really versatile. On the chillier side, I can wear my cardigan or jean jacket over it, on […]
