What I'm Working On...


It's been awhile since I've done one of these posts--usually because I tend to float between sewing projects.  But lest you think I only sew 1940 McCall patterns, I've got a surprise--a modern sewing pattern!  Gasp!  

When I saw the new Simplicity 1755, I knew it was something that would fit into my vintage-inspired wardrobe.  I also couldn't resist the pattern cover with the adorable plaid dress!  There is also the designer's artwork that they faithfully sewed up into a matching dress:


There's another Simplicity pattern I've got my paws on thanks to the folks over at Simplicity....this amazing hat pattern...


When David saw this, he said....'I'd love to make one of those hats for you'...Really?  YES PLEASE! How fun is that?  My favourites?  Views D and E.  


And even with the modern pattern distractions, I've still got a 1940 McCall number up my sleeve.  I'm working on this beauty at the moment, sewing it up in a lovely blue linen:
