New Pattern #1427 - FASHION! ... HA!

2/24/2014

Well folks ... after over 20 years with Simplicity Patterns, one of my designs made it to the "fashion section."

I'M A FASHION DESIGNER!!!!!!!!!

And it's harder work than I thought.  When they asked me to develop a tulle skirt as a fashion pattern, I didn't realize how exact the proportions were going to have to be.

Later this week I will show you how these skirts evolved and how many different versions I made before the design was approved.  You can't even believe how much tulle was piled up all around my work room.  

It was pretty over whelming!!

Is there a video that shows how to make this skirt using this pattern? For a beginner

I have several blogs here on my website with still photos showing construction. I don't know of any videos. Good idea though.

Anyway, if you hover your curser over the word BLOG next to my logo at the top of the page, you will get a drop down menu. Click on "My Patterns by number" That will take you to a page with lots of patterns listed by number. There are 3 or 4 posting about sewing this pattern.

Hope that helps.
