Tips Thoughts: Vogue Fall 2019
Let’s jump right in! I’ve been wanting to make a raincoat for a while now and I think V1460 would be perfect for one. This thing is a bit of a fabric haul requiring between 4-3/8 to 4-7/8 yards of outer fabric, plus 3-1/8 – 4 yards of lining, but I think it will be […]

Both Vogue and Burda have released their spring patterns and I’m sharing my thoughts again. First up Burda! As usual let’s start with what I like.

2018 Spring Patterns Review
I’m starting to have a weird love/hate relationship with patterns. I’m a pattern sewists, sure I draft somethings, but I’ve found most things I dream up or see and want to recreate can be found in a pattern. Or at least I can use a pattern as a starting place and make some mods to […]

Blueberry Criss Cross Jumpsuit – Vogue 9259

Abstract Leaf Cold Shoulder Dress: Vogue 9238
The cold shoulder definitely is the “on trend” look of the season, maybe year, and the pattern companies have definitely taken notice. All of the Big 4 companies have produced several patterns featuring the trend. I feel like the only one, but I’ve never been a real fan of the look. It’s not that I […]

Little Red Dress: Vogue 1513 a Fabricista Post
Obviously, the first thing I thought about for this late January post was a red dress for Valentine’s Day. My original plan was to whip up one of the new McCalls early spring patterns, M7534. It looks like a fairly simple pattern that could be whipped up in a time for Valentine’s Day for […]
