CIAO BELLA...
... if McCall's 6844 was not named 2014 pattern of the year - it certainly should have been. I loved this pattern from the very first time I laid eyes on it. I talked about ladies crowding me at the pattern cabinet while trying to get to it (here). I was so serious about adding it to my collection that I was ready to fight for it if necessary. So glad that I didn't have to fight for it; I would hate to get banned from Hancock Fabrics. The pattern is so versatile offering four view ((but what
would I know about all that versatility - I can't seem to move past
View C. The pattern has been well used - this being my 5th - LOVE IT!!!)
Here it is being modeled by my friend Dawn - must say she styled it perfectly.
So if you have yet to try McCall's 6844 you might want to give it a whirl. I am almost sure there are a few more of them lurking in my future...

I have this pattern too! I simply must get around to making this. Your version is great and yes, your friend is working it.
ReplyDeleteTomasa I PROMISE you that you'll love this pattern and after making it you'll wonder why you didn't make it up sooner. It's real quick and easy.
DeleteLike you I knew it would be a winner immediately. I've made 6. And two for my mom!
ReplyDeleteMrs. Smith I see you love this pattern just as much as I do. So you have made 8. I'm sure a few more will coming out of my sewing room.
DeleteI must have been living under a rock because I don't remember seeing this pattern before now. Thanks for the ringing endorsement, and you can tell Dawn loves it. Great smile!
ReplyDeleteDawn did look like she loves it. She came in early in the morning looking stunning and it boosted my sewing confidence. Promise you will love this pattern.

ReplyDeleteI've been putting McCall's patterns in my cart over at the Pattern Review $2.99 sale that ends today & I thought about this one but didn't do it. After reading your review (& many of the others on PR) I decided to get it! AND...I finished my Gingers!!! They're on my blog. :)
ReplyDeleteI saw your Gingers earlier today - and OMGoodness, they are gorgeous!!! You will be sooooo glad you put McCall's 6844 in your cart!

ReplyDeleteThis is a classic pattern that is for sure. Like you will be making more...already have some spring/summer fabric from my stash picked out. Look, I know I will be sewing this a lot so I went and bought another pattern so if my current pattern wore out I would have a back. Plus it was on sale at Hobby Lobby which I knew was meant to be!
ReplyDeleteI love my version too! Need to make a couple more!
