PREFACE<br />
A NEW YEAR – NEW FORTUNE<br />
Very soon, the sun will shine longer from the sky again, and it will slowly get warmer.<br />
Just the right time to start thinking about what the new spring fashion has to offer<br />
and what could perfectly complement your own wardrobe.<br />
Are you in a sporty mood, or would you prefer something more ladylike ? No problem,<br />
you will find both options here.<br />
What about a thoughtful gift for children at pre-school age ? Regardless of whether<br />
it’s a boy or a girl, everyone will find their favourite multi-culti doll and also a shirt,<br />
trousers, and a cute little dress to go with it. You can already start thinking of a new<br />
outfit as an extra for Christmas. But we don’t want to go that far yet.<br />
For the time being, you can look forward to delightful Easter decorations, colourful<br />
furnishings for your balcony or garden, and an elegant storage system for your home.<br />
Enjoy working with our ideas<br />

SPRING AWAK<strong>EN</strong>ING<br />
Whether it be loose-fitting blazers, loose-fitting shirts or trousers: The super<br />
comfortable and casual oversize look sets the trend for the coming season. Not<br />
surprising, after all, after home office and quarantine times, comfort that provides a<br />
sense of well-being is called for. The fashion pieces in XL version offer elegant freedom<br />
of movement and, thanks to their classic nature, they can still be worn in the seasons<br />
to come. However, this trend does not replace the desire to return to fancier pieces.<br />
Apart from bulky dresses, femininity returns with tight dresses in spring/summer 20<strong>22</strong>.<br />
Especially if they are made of imitation leather. No other material is more rock’n’roll<br />
than leather. But on the other hand, thanks to feminine cuts, asymmetrical silhouettes<br />
and modern colours, the leather dress now becomes extra elegant.<br />
Let yourself be inspired …<br />

THIS SEASON, THE SILHOUETTE IS<br />
G<strong>EN</strong>TLY EMBRACED WITH WIDE CUTS.<br />
WE PLAY AROUND WITH ACCESSORIES<br />
AND EMBROIDERY SO THAT FEMININITY<br />
DOES NOT GET LOST.<br />
1<strong>22</strong>-10 Shirt jacket “Anisa”<br />
Kept in simple self-coloured shades, this jacket<br />
is a timeless and chic companion. The embroidery<br />
with small mirror plates is definitely THE eyecatcher,<br />
a small embroidery motif on the sleeve<br />
and the decorative ribbon on the hem complete<br />
the look perfectly.<br />
1<strong>22</strong>-11 Handbag “Bari”<br />
For those who like having everything with<br />
them in case of possible emergencies,<br />
this design trend is just the right thing:<br />
Extra-large bags and XXL shoppers !<br />

BE WELL DRESSED AT ALL TIMES WH<strong>EN</strong><br />
WEARING BLOUSES. NO MATTER<br />
WHETHER COMBINED WITH A SKIRT,<br />
SHORTS OR TROUSERS, OR EV<strong>EN</strong> WORN<br />
AS A DRESS; BLOUSES OFFER AN EXTRA-<br />
ORDINARY RANGE OF POSSIBILITIES TO<br />
ALWAYS LOOK YOUR BEST.<br />
1<strong>22</strong>-18 Blouse “Fabiana”<br />
Great for the office or a stroll around town<br />
– the classic striped blouse comes with a few<br />
highlights such as asymmetrcal details, sewn<br />
pleats and cuffs on the trendy three-quarter<br />
sleeves. On the Tips pages you will find detailed<br />
instructions how to sew the classy-looking<br />
concealed button placket.<br />
1<strong>22</strong>-19 Blouse “Dotty”<br />
The short-sleeved blouse with the woven dots is<br />
cheerful and vibrant – a model for warmer days !<br />
The transparency of the fabric has been reduced<br />
by adding the facings in the front area.<br />

FASHION IS MEANT TO BE UNCOMPLICATED,<br />
AND INTEGRATING IT INTO EVERYDAY<br />
LIFE SHOULD BE AS EASY AS POSSIBLE.<br />
IT SHOULD WORK JUST AS WELL<br />
FOR THE BUSINESS MEETING AS IT DOES<br />
FOR THE AFTER-WORK COCKTAIL.<br />
THE PROBLEM OF MULTI-FUNCTIONALITY<br />
IS SOLVED WITH JUST ONE PIECE – THE<br />
CARDIGAN BLAZER.<br />
1<strong>22</strong>-25 Blazer “Lilian”<br />
The casually cut cardigan blazer can be combined in<br />
many ways; be it sporty or elegant – it is simply<br />
striking. And in the trendy colour purple, it is<br />
definitely a head turner.<br />
1<strong>22</strong>-26 Cap “Luca”<br />
The end of the workday is in sight as soon as you<br />
put on this baseball cap. The fashion trend that<br />
gives your look a touch of spontaneity and a<br />
twinkle in your eye. The absence notification is<br />
activated !<br />

1<strong>22</strong>-30 Dolls “Boy” and “Girl”<br />
No matter what the gender or the skin colour,<br />
there is something for everyone here. If you want<br />
to take the easy way out, simply embroider the<br />
entire doll body in the Jumbo Hoop. But we also<br />
have a good solution for those who don’t have an<br />
embroidery machine at hand.<br />
You can find the corresponding embroidery files at:<br />
www.bernina.com/downloads-inspiration-1-<strong>22</strong><br />
1<strong>22</strong>-31 Dolls’ dress<br />
Dressing up the little doll is the best part of the fun.<br />
Today a pretty dotted dress – and tomorrow ? The<br />
small parts require a bit of patience and tiny tools,<br />
but all effort is forgotten once the children’s eyes<br />
reflect mere joy.<br />
1<strong>22</strong>-32 Dolls’ shirt<br />
This way, daddy’s shirt can be used again, because<br />
even the most discarded shirt can be reused for<br />
dolls !<br />
1<strong>22</strong>-33 Dolls’ trousers<br />
These trousers are a very quick project. An identical<br />
cutting pattern for the front and the back – that is<br />
what we would like to have for ourselves, too.<br />
