Fall 2022 Pattern Haul
I have been making a conscious effort not to buy any patterns that I know I will not make now or ever. So over the last couple of months I have bought a few patterns but the reality is that I have scaled down my pattern buying considerably.
Here is a listing of the patterns I have purchased:
Vogue V1923- I talked about this pattern on my RTW video. Its inspired from the Virginia sweater from Altuzarra. Its a little different but pretty darn similar.
Vogue V1908 - I loved this pattern the moment that I saw it. It is a V neckline, collar, button detail with a wrap around skirt. It would be great if I can make it for the holidays but let’s see how much I can tackle in the next couple of weeks as we go into the holidays next week.
Know Me Patterns ME 2001- I loved this coat from Beaute’ J’Adore the moment it was released. Thank goodness for pattern sales because I scooped this one up the moment I saw it.
McCalls M8343 - This is part of the new McCalls collection and I’m on the hunt for a coral rib knit fabric I can use for this or even perhaps a pretty sweatshirt fleece or french terry.
McCalls M7357 - I saw this pattern on someone that attended TomKat Stitchery’s button down class. She mentioned that it was in fact a pattern top and I can’t believe I didn’t have this pattern before. It is a lovely V neck woven top. The best part…. it has different cup sizes. Can’t beat that.
Simplicity S9614 - This is an oversized polo shirt pattern. I’ll be making the tunic and changing the collar to a neckband that wraps around the neck for a little bit more of a feminine look.
Nova Coat - Paper Cut Patterns I also got the Nova Coat, I know it’s a much older pattern, even changing names. But Paper Cut Patterns had a sale, a rather good sale, so I decided to get the pattern at this time. I already have the fabric for it and looking for a lining. Very excited to make it.
Guess who also had a really nice sale on their patterns last week? Closet Core Patterns so I decided to get a few patterns from them too. Again, Indie Patterns are not inexpensive and I see a lot of these patterns as an investment and patterns that I can make again and again vs. just once.
Fiore Skirt - Closet Core Patterns. It is a simple wrap skirt, perfect for a confident beginner and it has two views. I can see myself making this in a viscose twill or even a linen.
Elodie Wrap Dress by Closet Core Patterns its been on my list to get for quite some time so I thought its now or next time it goes on sale. This pattern is inspired on a Reformation dress. I’ve seen numerous variations on it and they all look beautiful.
Last but not least I got one of their newest pattern….
The Mitchell Trousers. I got them the day that it was released. I Never EVER get a pattern the day its released. I think about these purchases for quite some time. But I really loved the flat front with the pleats towards the sides. This will be one of my items on the sewing plans for the rest of the year. I got the fabric for it and I’m ready to make a muslin and sew away,
I love the new Pebble Henley top from Sinclair Patterns. I think it would be a top that I would wear again and again…. but I already have a Simplicity pattern that is quite similar so I may pass on this one and try the one I have first.
What new patterns did you get? Any indie Patterns that I should consider that I perhaps missed?
