FABRIC INSPIRATION FOR MARITIMS

by Pauline Alice
written by Pauline Alice

From the beginning, I’ve pictured the Albors trousers and the Maritims pullover as a set, made in the same fabric. So naturally, I chose some cotton canvas to sew the prototypes. But that’s not the only type of fabrics available for the Maritims pullover. I’ve made a selection of great ideas for the outer fabric (for the lining, poplin or flannel would be perfect).

ATHLEISURE

1/ Turquoise nylon Rpistop – Harts Fabric

2/ Camo Ripstop oilskin– Merchant & Mills

3/ Arctic softshell – Telas activas

CLASSIC FISHERMAN SMOCK

1/ Moss twill hemp – Harts Fabric

2/ Burgundy water-repellent hemp– Stonemountain Fabrics

3/ Navy gabardine – Tissustory

DENIM

1/ Blue denim – Les Trouvailles d’Amandine

2/ White recycled denim– Harts Fabric

3/ Chambray – Cousette

ZOOM IN: MARITIMS

Finally, it’s time to show you the Maritims pullover in details!

I don’t know if you know it but I’m from Britanny (France). So the fisherman smock or « vareuse » as we call it in french was an evidence for me, I knew I would design one, one day (it’s a basic there, just like the rain coat and rubber boots).

After the Serra jacket, I thought it would be great to make another unisex pattern. A pullover you put on like a sweater but that protects you like a jacket. Maritims is fully lined to shield you from the weather and have nice finishing on the inside.

It has a loose shape with dropped shoulders, a big front pocket, deep enough so you don’t lose anything, an interior pocket and a high collar to protect from the wind.

To put it on, easy : just pull it over your head. Maritims has a wide zipped opening offset on the side and the colla ris closed by snaps. You can also choose to adjust the hem thanks to the drawstrings. Its extra long sleeves are meant to be rolled up.

You should choose a medium weight fabric for the outer layer : cotton canvas, gabardine, denim, corduroy or even nylon for an athleisure version. As for the lining, poplin or flannel are perfect.

Maria is wearing the size S, made in off-white cotton canvas with contrasting toptsitching and lined with poplin (coming soon). Aquilino is wearing a size L, lengthen 8 cm (patterns are designed for a height of 1,65 m and he is 1,83 m – front, back and front pocket pieces were lenthened), made in blue denim from Les Trouvailles d’Amandine and lined with striped cotton.

The Maritims pullover is available in sizes XS-XXL in the shop in print and PDF.

NEW COLLECTION

by Pauline Alice
written by Pauline Alice

It took more time than I thought it would but the new collection is finally here! Let’s take a look at the Albors trousers, the Maritims pullover and the Calvari dress.

I started designing these patterns when we were confined and I guess it reflects my need of horizons, fresh air and freedom. I wanted clothes I could wear outside, for all weather, that can be worn through the day for different activities, outdoors or indoors. And Rosa, the photograph, understood that perfectly, it shows in the pictures don’t you think ? Here’s a short description of the patterns :

Albors is a classic pair of trousers inspired by workwear (painter’s or carpenter’s trousers) with a wide leg and high waist. What sets it apart : the multipurpose pockets, so handy !

The Maritims pullover will be perfect for all outdoors activities : fully lined, you can pull it on easily thanks to the zipped opening and high buttoned collar.

The Calvari dress is casual but with lots of character. The shirt dress with its notched collar, buttonband and pockets is classic and ideal all year round.

I hope you liked this preview, you can find the patterns in the shop in print and PDF format: Albors, Maritims and Calvari.
See you very soon with some posts on each pattern, fabric inspirations and tutorials.
