McCall's Spring/Summer patterns

[UttaRetch]

See them here.  There is nothing compelling for me, but I did notice how badly the zip on



the 8205 sample is sewn.

  and more 

[Acorn]

I quite like this one:



And I do like that skirt, zip notwithstanding.  I also like the fact that they are all available as digital patterns (although not the fact that they are the same price as the paper ones - there should be some reduction for the lack of solid matter!)

[Gernella]

Looking at that lot I feel quite old, and that zip, they should be embarrassed to 'feature' it so prominently.

[Efemera]

Oh dear....

[Ploshkin]

Been there, had all that more than 40 years ago, won't be partaking this time round.

[UttaRetch]

You don't even need a pattern for 8205.

[Greybird]

No nothing - AGAIN.

Quite like M8214 though I do have a number of patterns for dresses with flounces so probably don't need any more (in fact I definitely don't need any more  ).
McCalls is aimed at a younger age group so many of its patterns are too fitted for me. I do like the roaring twenties coat and hat although the line drawing is a little dull. With a nice fake fur collar it could be good.

I have girls in their 20 who appreciate hand made garments and for them, the shacket number 8210 is very on trend

I can see one in a denim weight fabric for summer.
