This first one is 2724, and I really, really love the pink dress on the left. Some of the other styles are nice as well, and I like the way it looks like separates, but is really a dress.
This next one is 2730, and the little jacket with roses around the collar is my pick. I don't especially like the bottom of it - seems to just be hanging there without much shape. I thought I might cut it off to make a short jacket. We'll see.
That's it for now. You can expect me to be MIA for any new sewing projects for the next month. I am making the costumes for my church's Christmas musical and won't bore you with biblical robes and such.
I don't mind. I'd love to see the Biblical costumes. It really begins to feel like Christmas. The sights, and smells and pagents.
ReplyDeleteI love the pink dress! There is a Vogue sale for the next day on their site--5.99.
ReplyDeleteLove to see the costumes! My sewing interest has gotten out and I have been recruited too...
I LOVE that first pattern!
ReplyDeleteI want both of those too!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with all the costumes....
I love the second one, and am giving serious thought to buying and using it for a shrug that is much needed for next weekend. Thanks for posting!
ReplyDeletei was doing some searching on refashioning and found THIS website: http://aajsaunders.blogspot.com/ ONLY TO FIND OUT SHE LISTS YOUR BLOG AS ONE OF HER FAVORITES ON HER HOME PAGE! too cool.
ReplyDeleteBoth are adorable. McCall's has a jacket pattern similar to the second pattern in your post. Both have the same shape at the bottom, but there is a little detailing on the back.
ReplyDeletethese are both super versatile patterns, I can't remember when I last bought a simplicity pattern, I'll have to take a look!
