National Sewing Month-Guest Post {scientific seamstress}

If you are unfamiliar with our patterns let me give a quick introduction. We are three sewing geeks, Carla (the talented pattern
creator/designer), Cathy, and myself (Jeanine). We firmly believe in high quality patterns and detailed sewing instructions. Each pattern has plenty of options and a great size range! Just like actual science our instructions are written in a clear, logical manner with extreme attention to detail. whether you are new to sewing or have been sewing for years, you will love the simplicity of the designs, the timeless feel of the styles and that you don’t have to lose precious sewing time to deciphering instructions. You can just relax and enjoy the sewing process. The Scientific Seamstress line is a good basic look with a touch of boutique whimsy and the Sisboom line of patterns are a collaborative work with the renowned fabric designer Jennifer Paganelli. Between these two lines there is something for all ages, sizes and tastes!

Today I am going to take one of our free patterns, the Bosco Bowtie and use it to add a bit of fun to our Portrait Peasant dress.

Now of course the bowtie pattern is completely adorable as a bowtie, but I only have daughters and so I decided to girl up the bow tie by adding it to a dress

Doesn’t the bowtie just add the perfect finish to the dress?! I absolutely love it! I personally find the fun in sewing is in the
finishing details, those extra touches that take it from plain to fabulous
