Eye-catcher….

An eye-catcher is a person or thing that attracts the attention, according to WordReference. Additionally, the Merriam-Webster says: an eye-catcher is something that arrests the eye and also mentions the first use of the word was in 1787. Now I wonder what it was that arrested someone’s eye.

The online sewing community is very visual. Every day a lot of images are published on social media and on blogs. So, every day I see a lot of sewing related images and some of them are eye-catchers for me. Why? Because they make me think, they give me inspiration. That is why I want to share these eye-catchers with you.

Follow below what caught my eye this week:

• The Wear Lemonade jumpsuit

  

  Emma from Dressmakers Social posted this jumpsuit on Instagram. This is an unknown pattern for me and I really like the crossover design of the front. I have a long desire to make a jumpsuit and this one could be the one.

• The Geodesic sweater from Blueprints for Sewing

  

  Sara from The Sara Project made a fabulous version of this intriguing pattern. It really makes me want to make one for myself.

• The belt hack for the Saunio Cardigan

  
  As one of the mods of SewMyStyle, Jessica Lorraine showed how she sewed a beautiful version of the Saunio Cardigan. More, she made a belt hack for it. I have to confess that the Saunio Cardigan is way out of my comfort zone but I committed to the Project SewMyStyle so I’m going to sew it in February. The way Jessica did it really gives me some ideas how to do it.

• Cloth Habit Watson Bra by Helen

  

  Look at this amazing sew Helen posted on her blog: Helen’s closet. Not only did she sew a superb bra but also she took some awesome pictures wearing it.
  The Watson Bra has been on my sewing list for more than a year. After seeing these pictures I really want to dig in and go for it.

• Fabric shopping in Berlin

  

  Stefanie of Sea Of Teal wrote a very informative post about fabric shops in Berlin. This really got my interest because I went to Berlin recently and did some fabric shopping as well. It was very interesting that she mentioned 3 fabric stores I didn’t know of and I went to another place: Neuköllner Stoff. As I am planning to go to Berlin again this Spring I sure will visit the places she mentions.
