The Last Stitch | Sewing a 4-piece capsule wardrobe: Burdastyle and Knip Mode @Thelaststitch | Uploaded June 2017 | Updated October 2024, 9 minutes ago.
Back in April I boldly announced that I would sew a 4-piece wardrobe using only fabrics from my stash and patterns from Burdastyle and Knip Mode that I already had in my stash. I labelled the project "spring wardrobe" but, well that didn't happen, since I'm well into summer now. To be honest this project left me exhausted and that is something I talk about quite a bit in this video. Plus I show you all four makes of course and give the inside scoop on all of them! And talk a lot about fitting pants.
Pants for real people

Fast Fit by Sandra Betzina - explains how to remove ease from the sleeves.
