Ok, so I actually think this is a pretty cute dress and I feel like it is something my sister would love to wear, but I also feel like I have some nice options with similar features already in the stash. Either way there’s a lot to look at, so let’s jump in: (That’s right I said it – Butterick is taking the crown for spring releases this year.) While I think McCall’s has got a very spring-y vibe going on, I can’t say that I find any of these styles particularly innovative. Also, either the timing is a bit crazy or I haven’t been paying attention, but both Butterick and McCall’s have released their spring collections! Today I’m going to take a look at the McCall’s patterns, because I want to save the good stuff for later. My apologies for not getting this up sooner as I’ve said, my work has been totally nuts this week. Now on to what I’m sure you are all really here for – a look at new sewing patterns. It may be good to focus on our sort of solitary hobbies for a while, and with social media and the internet, it can still very much feel like we have meaningful interactions regardless of the world’s crazy circumstances. I know this looming crisis is impacting everyone differently – at my work I’ve been pulling extra hours and putting in a lot of effort to get everything ready for “remote delivery,” but for others it maybe be that they are simply unable to work for the foreseeable future. However, if we are all quarantined at home, I can guarantee that my current “commuting time” is absolutely going to turn into “sewing time,” so if this is the thing that’s going to prevent us from going stir-crazy maybe it’s not so trivial to be looking at patterns after all. Secondly, I am aware that we are living in interesting times and reviewing new sewing patterns is perhaps a bit trivial with COVID-19 high on everyone’s minds.
