Come to Mama...New Vogue Patterns

Not to enable anyone or anything (Heh! Heh!) , but the new Vogue patterns are available at BMV.com---and, they are on sale!!!   I decided to go over there to look for a pattern to knock off a dress I saw on Net-a-Porter (more about that later), and there they were.  I could not control myself.  I will show you what I ordered to whet your appetite.  This is not by far a comprehensive list of the new patterns, so I will let you browse on over there for a closer look.

Up first is V1280, a Donna Karan creation.  It calls for a two way stretch knit.  I love the interesting lines in the dress and I can see amazing color blocking possibilities.

Next is V1281, also a Donna Karan.  I initially thought that this was also a knit, but it calls for crepe or charmeuse.  WOW is all I can say!!!

Lastly, as far as the new patterns, I ordered V1286, a Tracy Reese design.  This dress shows too much cleavage for my taste, so I will have to raise the neckline a little, but I do love the lines of the dress and the back of just fabulous.

Lastly, I remembered to put the pattern I went to look at originally (before I was overcome by the new patterns) into my shopping cart.  It is M6028.

I have been salivating over this dress I saw on Net-a- Porter and went to BMV to look for a pattern that I might could use to make a similar dress.  I am thinking the first view of this pattern might give me what I need to make something similar to this beauty:

But, then again, it is on sale for $2,274 from an original $6785.  Since it is a third the original price, I suppose I could just buy it---are you kidding me?!?!?!?!?  In the words of Swamp People's Troy Landry, "I don't tink so."  Until next time, Happy Sewing!!!
