Wanna take a peek? I know I'd love to look through some bloggers' pattern collections.
Here, in no particular order, are the patterns in my stash that I have not yet made and have no fabric matched up with.
Not shown here are the books I have, Sew Serendipity, the Colette Sewing Handbook and Twinkle Sews.
Lots for knits in the Ottobre (4/09), a pretty coat and UNDERWEAR too (which I have actually done a first muslin with!).
McCalls 6318 might be a good one to use quilting cotton for. I rarely reach for it when thinking of a garment for myself any more, but I hate missing out on all the gorgeous prints.
I have actually muslined that cute Butterick 60's pattern with the collar and tried to make it in my "nice" fabric too, but it turned out a wadder just because I wasn't focused. :( I want to try it again but I need to be inspired by another fabric.
Why did I buy that Very Easy Vogue wrap dress? no idea.
Simplicity 2343 is another one that I tried and wasn't careful enough/didn't measure well. I still love the look and want to tackle it again.
I have several pattern regrets, some that I may never get to, but just keep around because, well, because I don't know what else to do with them right now.
For instance that duffel bag... Soooo cute, but I didn't realize it wasn't lined and the reviews I've read make me scared to wrestle with it.
Even so, I have PLENTY to work on and a growing list of patterns I'd like to add to these!
nice collection! You will be busy!
ReplyDeleteI never really thought about nosing through someone else's pattern stash... that was pretty fun! And the very easy vogue wrap dress, that actually looks pretty nice! It has potential.
