New Buttericks and December One Garment a Month Plans

I don't normally do new pattern release posts. A lot of the people I follow do them and I just enjoy their posts - however there is a dress pattern I. MUST. HAVE. MUST. HAVE. MUST. HAVE. MUST. HAVE (better stop before they come and take me away ho ho he he ha ha)




Look at the lines

I even know what I am going to do with it........ (imaging dreamy face with a thought bubble)

Now on to December Plans for the Sarah Liz Make a Garment a Month Challenge.

I actually finished 2 garments in November - my tea dress (official challenge garment) which still needs a few tweaks and the StyleArc Pleated Pia top.

My December plans also include StyleArc (what else!!)

I purchased some of the Mint coloured Bengaline from StyleArc which will be transformed by the magic of sewing (hopefully) into the StyleArc Barb Pants


That is my official Garment for December. I also want to make (time permitting) a tunic top and depending on what colour the mint bengaline looks in life (Aus Post has it in their custody at the moment) the tunic will either be in white linen or in a gorgeous blue chiffon I purchased from Denver Fabrics about 2 years ago.



Till the end of November I will be finishing off some pillow cases for Rhonda's wonderful drive.

Have a good one.

  2. This is really the only pattern in the bunch that interested me. So many patterns, so little time:) Love the colors of the pants and tunic.

  3. Yes, I agree, this will look lovely on you! Its a gorgeous dress with fabulous lines. Not wanting to spoil the big reveal (and I wont) but I have a suspicion I even know the fabric you plan to use ;) then again I could be wrong too lol.

  4. That dress does have some wonderful lines and if Dilliander is correct it will be stunning. Your December plans are lovely, the colours look great and hopefully Australia Post releases your fabric soon.

  8. Loving the look of that dress and the lines are fabulous. Definitely a great one for colour blocking and having fun with. I haven't yet tried StyleArc patterns so I might just have to try them out as well.

  9. This really is an interesting dress pattern with all those curvy seams. Can't wait to see your version. I love your plan for the StyleArc Barb pants and tunic top. Your fabrics look very nice together.

  10. That is a gorgeous dress pattern - all those curvy panels. Lots of tacking, I think :). I think it will suit you nicely. Interesting that you are making Style Arc Barb pants - I was thinking about making them in December as well :). Your version in mint will be stunning - hope you have time to make the tunic as well.

  16. Oh my goodness that dress is awesome. I never look at the new patterns because I so don't need anymore, but I don't have anything like that in my stash. Looking forward to seeing what you do with it!
