Been and shopped

[Starryfish]

Went and bought Kellie, thank you. I wanted it anyway for a top.

I've made the Kellie dress twice, one worn for a wedding, very comfortable to wear.

A tip, it's quite close fitting so if your fabric has just a little stretch it's worth adding a little extra seam allowance. The 2nd one I made had more stretch and I ended up taking the side seams in.

Also if the fabric has a pattern take care in placing the front as the neckline ends up being at about 2 o'clock to the skirt or lower part. You'll see what I mean when you put the PDF together. I'd say cutting it out was the most complicated part! The top is also self lined so you may need a plain knit if the fabric has a light background and print can be seen (that happened with the one I wore for a wedding.

Think I'll get the Iris dress, been looking at it for a while when there have been offers.

I'm going to be good

[mudcat]

I was not good.  I bought five dresses of which at least two can also be used to make tunics which is my current wardrobe need.

The five dresses:
Venice Knit
Iris Woven
Eme
Sia Knit
Alissa Knit

I got the Mavis Knit Tunic as the freebie even though I don't much care for it I liked it better than the other one.  I often find the freebies aren't patterns I would normally buy.  Who knows though, I've been cold a lot lately so maybe it could be useful.

I wonder if Fairy succumbed - she's probably got most of them!!!!!!!

*fingers in ears*  not looking not looking la la la la

I genuinely do have enough Style Arc that are still not made up...and other brands too.  This year will be the 'make everything or get rid of the pattern' year

Me too I am NOT going to look

[Tamnymore]

I got some Style Arc patterns in their last sale and there isn't anything new since then so it's relatively easy to resist temptation ...... this time round.

Me too, trouble is no one else wants them (in the for sale section). Plus I am going to adopt Sandra Betzina's philosophy and if I have fabric more than 3 years old I am never going to use it so of it goes to the charity shop.

THREE YEARS IS NOTHING!

@DementedFairy actually as soon as I pressed post I realized that the skirt I am making at the moment is fabric I bought when I had to be suited and booted so it must be over 10 years old. So the charity shop will have to wait.
