In the wardrobe / Re: Mood Patterns
« Last post by ScubaGirl on April 24, 2024, 16:36:05 PM »I've only made 2 Mood Sewciety patterns so far. The Eucalyptus shorts (actually made 3 of the same shorts pattern) and the Gardenia skirt (made 2 of them so far), and both turned out really well. I really like the fit of them. I plan to make more (a blouse pattern is all printed out).
The instructions are rather "no frills", which I actually like (I can't stand faffing through 40 pages of instructions for an a-line skirt). But youtube is your friend if you need to know how to do any of the things.

I just need to remember to remove the big piece of tape saying FACING! before I turn it all the right way out.
