Finally Vogue...

...because this Christmas gift card has been burning a hole in my pocket!


VOGUE 1614  WHY? Because there aren't many of the Tom and Linda Platt patterns that I don't like.  Sleek and Lady-like and just right for Church or even a wedding.

VOGUE 1619  WHY?  Because every pattern stash deserves ALL the great Paco Peralta designer patterns.  European design lines by a great friend that I've followed for years. 

VOGUE 9355  WHY?  Because it's darling! Slight off shoulder gorgeousness!
VOGUE 9357  WHY?  THE POCKETS, THE POCKET!
VOGUE 1620  WHY:  Why not?  I keep telling myself to make wide legged pants.


VOGUE 9361  WHY?  Because I've been wanting a pair of culottes forever and a day.

VOGUE 9365  WHY?  Another great suit.  Would be great in any color for Easter.

VOGUE 9367  WHY?  To add to my growing trench coat/jacket collection.



VOGUE 1613  WHY?  Because I'm slightly intrigued by the softly gathered skirt and the unique princess seamed bodice.

Of course all of these might not get to come home with me, but we will see.
What are your Spring picks???

  5. Cute dresses, and I love that long coat! And you have a gift card? Life couldn't get much better! I pulled out a bag of brown fabrics from sew camp, and have been working on brown. But it isn't much of a color for inspiration, is it? Baby and toddler clothes are what I'm enjoying these days.

    1. There is nothing wrong with brown at all, think of all the colors you can put with it. So nice to be sewing for your babies!

  6. Ok, confession time: I have only sewn ONE Vogue pattern, lol! But this collection looks so promising! Maybe I will venture out and pick up a few. I saw that the V9355 was inspired by Megan Markle. Lovely choices!

  7. It is a great spring collection and I wish you extra hours in the day to get them all sewn up! :-) I am working on some Butterick pj shorts, and the V Express top by Islander Sewing.
