In December of 2015, Bean even asked for a giant stuffed Chewbacca and a giant stuffed David Bowie. When Bean was a toddler, she, her sister, and I would spend summer vacation watching Labyrinth almost daily we’d flip through videos on YouTube, dancing and singing. Her sister, Sophia, used to watch Labyrinth semi-weekly as a toddler, too.

She knew about my love for his music, the movie Labyrinth, but she also knew that my daughter, Bean, had inherited my obsession. Sorry if you’re hearing it from me first. It said: I know how much you love David Bowie and I don’t know if you’ve had a chance to hear yet, but he passed away yesterday. If soon means March, because I think I'm booked until then.When I checked my phone the morning of January 11, 2016, I had a message from a former student of mine who worked the night shift at the Hard Rock Casino in town. But the drawing *is* cute, isn't it?īutterick 5610 - love this and will definitely make it soon. The text description is "very loose fitting." Not a good sign. I think I own every Butterick pattern she's modeled for.īutterick 5616 - I already have a similar TNT jeans jacket pattern so I have no idea why I bought this except that the illustration drew (hah!) me in. I'm sure I'll make another scrub top for her too, as she always begs for those. )īutterick 5436 - I could easily draft this, but why bother when it's only 3 bucks? This will be a good birthday present in July for my sister, who loves to cook. This is one of those patterns I bought for bedtime reading. I'm not sure if I'll actually make it, although it's a good candidate for the Jacket-A-Month Sew-Along. I've had this on my wish list ever since Vogue released it, waiting for one of these BMV sales.īutterick 5429 - it's a wardrobe pattern but I bought it for the top, which is a cute twisty neckline.īutterick 5619 - another wardrobe pattern which I bought for one piece - the jacket.

Vogue 8689 - I love the seaming on this blouse, plus the multi cup sizes. I really wish Simplicity would have these sales on their website. I'd rather pay $1 more per pattern to avoid all that and have them delivered right to me in a few days. It's so much more convenient to order online, knowing that the patterns are in stock in my size, I won't be spending any gas or travel time, and I won't be tempted by impulse buys in the store.
But that won't stop me from continuing to order patterns during the $2.99/$3.99 sales. I didn't renew my Club BMV membership because I don't think I ordered enough patterns last year for the 10% additional savings to pay for the cost of the membership. Opinions?Īlso in the mail, my order from the last BMV sale arrived. I'll test on a scrap first and think about it some more. Back in the day, doublets were actually stuffed with real horse hair and other stuff. I'm thinking of using fusible horsehair canvas (which I have) on the torso pieces of the doublet to make them really sturdy. EMy second fabric finally arrived yesterday. Ignore my iron-cleaning rag under the board. It's very simple so it should go together quickly. I cut out the puffy shirt last night and will sew it later today. Make buttonholes BEFORE you stuff the legs if you want any maneuverability while sewing them. I'm glad *I* won't have to pee while wearing this. A pair under the waistband on either side of the fly and one pair at the bottom of the fly. I haven't done anything to attach it yet, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to go with the brass eyelets. I told Reko that it turned out more 3D than I realized. If you want a less-3D result, you would go down a "cup size" or two by reducing the "princess seam" curve on the front. So, here's the pattern pieces for the codpiece. And speaking of funny, I always find it amusing when I hear complaints about how revealing clothing is "these days." What days? Waaaay back during the Renaissance, men were showcasing their "packages" and women were pushing up and baring most of their bosom, even if they were wearing layer upon layer of clothing.
