Summer Butterick patterns are here!

I'm again guilty of stalking the Butterick website for new patterns. Somehow or another - I do not remember signing up for it - but they've put me on their email list and now email me when new patterns are available. So no more stalking is necessary. Here are the newest additions.

So, it's no surprise I like this first one, 5350. It's fitted, has seaming details, and a cute tucked neckline. My pick is the white one with little cap sleeves. Do I need yet another dress pattern? Well, no, but I'll probably buy it anyway. Perhaps I need to rethink my mainly tops and bottoms wardrobe and just make a ton of dresses instead. I sure love them and they are so nice and cool for my long Texas summers.

I'm surprising myself with this one. I like view D, with the strapless bodice and bottom ruffle. This might not be smart with my having two young boys that have been known to pull and tug at me. It sure is cute, though.

This looks perfect for a shear. I'm loving view B with its gathered sleeves and contrasting neck and sleeve treatment.

I must have a thing for cropped jackets. View B is cute with all those tucks on the bodice and sleeves, and I like view C for its tulip sleeves.

Just to clarify, since I had the mishap with my navy skirt and don't have time to get more fabric and all, I'm not entering the mini-wardrobe contest at PR. Also, this will be a month without many posts since we are on vacation for the last two weeks. I'll be sure to post some pictures of our adventures in June. Hugs to you all!
