I like pattern no. 2, even though I’m sure all 3 will look chic. Can’t wait to see your selection. Also can’t wait to see the bag you’ll make this winter. Those fabrics, especially the geometric shapes fabric, are gorgeous! And I love that neon rainbow hardware. Love your channel!
Awww. Thank you so much. I appreciate your kind words. 😊
The top you’re wearing is lovely, Cynthia;, and the PJ bottoms look super-comfy! Looking forward to seeing your bag, and can’t wait to see you at Frocktails! 💗
Same here. I believe we will have a great time. 😀
I love the look of the Magnolia dress!! I cannot wait to finally meet you in person in Charlotte!
Me either. I believe we will have fun. 😊
What fun that you’re going to Charolette Frocktails! My vote is the Magnolia dress. Go for it!
Hi Loriann. I did purchase the pattern so it’s definitely on the list now. 😊
I like the second pattern best! Im looking forward to seeing your fabric pairings!
Hopefully, I will have that video out sometime in August too. Thank you for voting. 😊
I think you will look lovely in the Magnolia Dress! I vote for buying fabric and making that one with the slit! French chic for sure! 😇
Thank you for the vote! 😀
I love the look of the Magnolia dress, Cynthia! It would be stunning on you. I adore Atelier Jupe patterns, so I’d go with that dress if you don’t want to invest in more fabric for the Magnolia.
Thank you, Lynn. I love Atelier Jupe patterns, and I know they fit my body well. That’s another plus for it. 🤔
I vote for either the Magnolia dress or the first dress. You could extend the first dress pattern to a long or midi length dress as well. Create the magnolia with the short flutter sleeve it you think you might wear it more often. Both would be beautiful. Thank you for the inspiration. I need to find a little time to sew again. Summer has been busy with the grandchildren. I look forward to your video’s on your channel.❤
Thank you. ☺️ I will likely use the modest top with flutter sleeves if I make the Magnolia dress, but I would use the longer skirt. Glad you enjoy watching my channel.
I would go with your first thoughts and go for the magnolia dress. It would be fab
Thank you for your vote. 😊
Hi Cynthia. I love the Palma top. Are the instructions in English?
Pajama pants are awesome to make. I can’t wait to see your planned makes. It’s always great to see you! Have a great weekend! ❤ Diann
Hi Diann. The instructions for Maison Fauve patterns are in French and English. They have great instructions.
Yes, I love making pajama pants too. Have a great weekend. 😀
The third one. Although I think all of them would look great.
Thank you for voting. 😊
Hi Cynthia. If you're looking for some dress inspiration for Frocktails, Cloth Edit in Australia have a lot to choose from. I'm a regular watcher, and admire all your lovely makes 😊
I do like Cloth Edit. Thank you for sharing. 😊
All your dress patterns sound lovely. I don’t think you could go wrong with any of them. If I had to choose my favorite it would be the Gigi dress. I can picture you wearing it with a little capelet or bolero; it would be stunning. That said, if I were you, I’d probably choose the Alana dress because you know it will fit and flatter you as the Atelier Jupe patterns always do, and it is a really lovely dress. I like the Magnolia dress, as well and I am sure it would be lovely if you chose it, but I think if you were trying to pattern match, that dress could be a real fabric hog. I know whatever you choose with be gorgeous.
I like the idea of learning bag making with a kit and a sewing course. I wish I’d done that for my first one. Doing it on my own with an online free pattern wasn’t the best idea, but I did end up with a bag that suits my needs well, even if the interfacing is a little on the weak side. I really love having a bag that has pockets that suit my needs!!! I am sure you are going to sail right through making your bag whenever you get around to sewing it.
I finished my shorts and am so thankful they fit well as I needed some denim shorts. My sewing mojo has left the building, so I’m taking a short break. The garden is keeping me busy and I’m thinking about getting into some hand embroidery or crocheting to mix things up a bit. I hope you have a lovely week ahead and you and your family are staying cool.
Hi Nadine. I’m glad you finished your shorts. I wanted to sew some shorts but haven’t yet this summer.
I hope your garden is doing well. We have some tasty summer vegetables. I don’t do very well with flowers so I didn’t grow any this year.
After I look through my fabrics to see what will work for my Frocktails dress, perhaps it will be easier to pick one of them. Thank you for watching as always. Have a wonderful weekend. 😊
