Sewn with Love: My Son’s First Graduation Suit

It all started with a simple question from a mom to her son: “Do you know what you’ll wear for your graduation?” He smiled and said he wanted a bright pink suit something bold, something that reflected him. That answer sparked an adventure I’d never taken before sewing a suit from scratch. A story of love, patience, and first times.

Finding the Right Fabric

I searched for almost two months – fuchsia was too loud, classic pink too pale. I knew I was looking for dusty rose – soft, warm, and quietly sophisticated. At last, I found it in “Poga” fabric store in Liepāja. There was just enough material, and I instantly knew: this is the one. For contrast, we chose a dark viscose lining from “Kreps”, and matching buttons that tied everything together. Everything seemed to fall perfectly into place.

The Sewing Challenge

Sewing a suit from scratch isn’t just about fabric it’s a test of patience, precision, and determination. It became my biggest project yet.I started with a mock-up from inexpensive fabric the first version was too small, but it taught me what to fix.The second one fit perfectly, and that gave me the confidence to move forward.The jacket was the hardest part the collar, welt pockets, proportions, comfort. The fabric was light, maybe too light for a traditional suit,but the color was exactly what my son had imagined.

More Than Just Clothes

This wasn’t just clothing. It carried love, time, and care in every stitch. The finished suit became proof of what can be achieved when you work with heart and courage. Seeing my son’s smile and pride on his graduation day that was the greatest reward of all. 💗

What I Learned

✅ Take your time – complex projects need careful preparation.
✅ A mock-up is never a waste – it helps refine both fit and confidence.
✅ The right fabric makes all the difference.
✅ Everything begins with courage – even your first suit can be something truly special.

Doll Fashion Collection: Transformations and New Outfits

1. The Beginning – A Doll Comes to Visit

A very special doll arrived at my workshop – a little tired, with tousled hair and no wardrobe of her own. This was a wonderful opportunity not only to care for her, but also to create a brand-new clothing collection reflecting different moods and styles. 💫

2. The Clothing Collection – From Everyday to Celebration

This time, I created several outfits – from playful everyday dresses to festive ensembles with tulle skirts. Each piece is handmade – every stitch, every hem, and every detail crafted with love, care, and creative joy.

3. The Makeover – To Care, Adorn, and Love

The doll needed some pampering – we started with a gentle hair wash. It was one of the most heartwarming moments in the whole process. 🌸

Afterwards, her hair was dried, brushed, and styled, giving her a fresh, radiant look.

This small beauty ritual not only renewed her appearance but also brought new life to the entire collection.

4. The Ending – Or Just the Beginning

This was my very first doll fashion collection – and I’m already planning the next one. Right now, I’m on the lookout for a new model – a doll ready to inspire the next round of transformations and handmade clothing.

Follow along for more stories – this is just the beginning of a creative journey through tiny clothes and big dreams. ✂️👚

🧵 The power of creativity and the path to development with the support of EU funds

SIA ''ADDIPA style'' is a story about creativity, patience and love for handwork. Each product we create is unique – it contains a piece of soul, a story and a desire to bring joy.

In order to continue growing and offer even more high-quality and diverse works, I was looking for solutions to improve technical support. Then I had the opportunity to participate in the EU Recovery Fund program and receive support for the purchase of a computerized sewing machine with embroidery function – Bernette B79 Yaya Han.

The sewing machine opens up new possibilities – it allows you to create more complex embroideries, more precise details and unique designs that can be created with the help of a computer program. This means that now the works offered by SIA ''ADDIPA style'' will be even more personalized and of higher quality.

This step is important not only for me as a creative needlewoman, but also for the company. It is an investment in the future, development and realization of new dreams.

I would like to thank the EU Recovery Fund.

Toys with a Story: Unique and Made Just for You

Ever since childhood, I have been captivated by handmade crafts and creativity. Sewing has always been my passion, and I find special joy in making stuffed toys. Each toy is crafted with not just skill but also love, carefully selecting materials and paying attention to every detail.

I love the idea that favorite toys become childhood friends – they are taken on adventures, provide comfort, and preserve memories. That is why I want to offer the possibility of creating a toy that matches your wishes and needs.

Would you like a special stuffed toy resembling your child’s favorite animal? Or perhaps you want to preserve the memory of a beloved character or create a truly unique gift? I would be delighted to turn your idea into reality.

Each toy is made to order – you can choose the shape, colors, materials, and even personalize it with an embroidered name or special detail.

If you would like to order a one-of-a-kind toy made just for you, feel free to contact me! Together, we will create something special that will bring joy to both little ones and grown-ups.

Warmly, Kristīne

An embroidery journey in Alsung: From tradition to modern brooch

An embroidery journey in Alsung: From tradition to modern brooch

Saturday was a special day in Alsung, when I went to take part in the master class "Embroidery of luxury suits for suits". It was my first visit to this historic and gorgeous village and it immediately left a great impression with its charm and traditions. During the master class, we learned how to embroider a fragment of an exquisite beaded stole, a traditional piece of suit heritage.

Each stitch reminded me of the patience and artistry of our ancestors that is preserved and continued today. While learning embroidery techniques, I realized how carefully each detail is made to create true elegance. At the end of the day, I managed to create a beautiful brooch that became a special memento of this wonderful adventure.

The power of Sutu traditions and the art of embroidery created in me a deep admiration for the ancient heritage, which I am grateful to learn and bring to my work.
