A few weeks ago, I joined the Blaverry testing team and Christie, the designer behind Blaverry, has been keeping me very busy.
My first assignment was to re-test the Ollie top and Nina skirt. I’m sure you are asking yourself - Why Blaverry is doing re-testing? Christie decided to improve the quality of her patterns, changing the look and including new options to her patterns.
I’m happy to support Christie in this initiative and I believe every designer should look back at their work and identify potential improvements.
Both patterns have the following new features:
- New colouring page included in the instruction for your little fashion designer at home;
- New measurement sheet;
- Nesting of the sizing making it easier to blend sizes; and,
- The instructions have been reviewed and updated.
What are the major changes for the Ollie top?
- The Ollie has an additional collar option.
- Increased length
What are the major changes for the Nina skirt?
- New shape for the skirt, the back is now a little longer to accommodate those little touchy!
The top with the Peter Pan panel was my last Disney inspired project before our vacation. I’m planning to publish a post in the next few weeks, with all my Disney inspired projects. In addition, you will see more re-testing from Blaverry, I just finished to review 4 patterns.
My love for Blavery patterns is continuously growing!
I’m wishing you a great week.

Bonjour,
Il y a quelques semaines déjà que j’ai joint l’équipe de test de Blaverry et Christie, le designer derrière Blaverry, m’a gardé très occupé.
Je suis particulièrement heureuse de soutenir Christie dans le cadre de cette initiative. Je crois que tous les designers devraient revoir leur travail de temps en temps et d’ identifier les opportunités pour des améliorations.
Les deux patrons offres ces nouvelles fonctionnalités :
- nouvelle page de coloriage, inclus dans les instructions, pour votre petite styliste à la maison.
- nouvelle page pour prendre les mesures de votre modèle.
- ajustement des pièces du patron pour faciliter le mélange des différentes grandeurs.
- finalement, les instructions ont été revus et complète mise à jour.
Quels sont les principaux changements pour le haut Ollie ?
-Le patron a une option supplémentaire de col.
-L’allongement du haut (un peu plus long).
Quels sont les principaux changements pour la jupe Nina ?
-Nouvelle forme, le dos est maintenant un peu plus long pour accommoder les petits derrières !
Mon amour pour ses patrons ne cesse de croître !
Passez une belle semaine,
Nadine

You've made so many! What a lucky girl, she has the prettiest clothes!
RépondreEffacerThank you Valérie, Yes she is a lucky girl. I guess I will enjoy it until she decides that mommy made clothes is no longer cool!
EffacerThank you for sharing all of your creations during your time testing Nina and Ollie for me. You were so important to the process of helping me perfect and improve these patterns. And even little miss as she helped tile the patterns for you and of course take all of these beautiful pics. I hope you all have a great time at Disney and I'm excited to know that miss will get to wear an outfit made from 2 of my patterns!
RépondreEffacerThank you Christie. I had forgotten about the tilling of the pattern. I definitely had an helper for this one!
