Happy Christmas!
And here is the Festive Season Patrones - of black clothes. That's unusual isn't it? A little gloomy but very practical.
Ok, here we go. The first section is cocktail dresses. I love this one but...cough.... it takes 17.05 metres of fabric! Look at the interesting cutting layout.
Next we have Rebel Without a Cause which I think is party separates with a Western feel. A strappy dress, singlet, 2 suit jackets, bustier, jumpsuit, tie neck blouse, frilly lace blouse, baggy crotch pants and this frilly blouse, waistcoat and skirt.
And next Tango Attitude, which has a lingerie-ish feel. 3 petticoatish dresses, a waistcoat, jacket, top, topper and skirt.
And these very smart looking trousers.
Next (the best bit I think) is a section on Little Black Dresses. 8 in all, with different styles and some very smart ones. My favourite is the draped black dress below. Isn't it nice?
And finally - colour! The larger size section with 3 dresses including this lovely red one.
The next Patrones is the advance Spring.
Have a lovely time everyone!
Wow, can't wait to get mine, it can't be far away. Love dress #37 and page 15 too even though it is a bit pirate-like :) I am looking forward to the Christmas break and getting my sewing mojo back, it's been so busy at work I haven't even looked at my machine xx
ReplyDelete17 yards - wow! Can you imagine just cutting that one out? BTW I'm sure you have said before, but who do you use for your Patrones subscription, it seems a lot more reliable and faster than mine.
ReplyDeleteYou lucky girl! I've got a subscription made with my local provider here in Germany, and all I got until today (Dec 22!!) is the Patrones 307. So, imagine, I was pretty astonished to see that the magazine did it to Australia up to no. 310 already. But I do hope to get the next ones sometime, and until then I will take a look in your blog. So, thanks a lot. Ute.
ReplyDeleteHappy Christmas to you too, Jacquie! I guess although black is not very cheery it's always a popular dress colour! These Patrones patterns always look so interesting. That fabric eater dress does look lovely - what a lot of fabric though! - and I like the cool trousers and the tango attitude stuff too.
