Hoping my title will get the attention of many, as the ladies @ Lee & Pearl continue to create amazing patterns!  If you sign up for their newsletters, you’ll receive an amazing FREE pattern + BONUS, if you sign up right now, you’ll score last year’s pattern (She Blinded Me With Science Unisex Lab Coat), as well as the new-release pattern, which they’ve just “sneak-peeked” here.  AS IF that’s not enough, BOTH patterns INCLUDE 18-inch, 16-inch & 14-inch sizes . . . sooo, GO sign up here!

 

I recently completed Lee & Pearl’s Pattern #1072: Corps de Ballet Romantic Tutu for a dear friend who’s finished it off beautifully with a doll, crown, shoes plus ballet accessories to donate to her church auction.  Don’t let this pattern fool you, as I’ve never made anything so intricate, but their excellent details and photos make it very do-able!

Also, Lee & Pearl just began adding very simple patterns @ very reasonable prices to their shop in all 3 popular sizes with many more to follow.  Here’s their 1st: Gym Shorts, so they now have something for every sewing level. Hope you enjoy looking around @ Lee & Pearl and if you click on my Lee & Pearl tags, you’ll see other items I’ve sewn using their patterns.

Week 2 Entry: 2018 Summer Sew-Along

Tags

AG, AGAT, free pattern, Summer Sew-Along

I’ve hoarded this honey-colored linen fabric for years, but knew I had to use it for this challenging and detailed Edwardian Ramble outfit for WrenFeathers‘ annual Summer Sew-Along this week:

With her red hair, A Girl for All Time’s Clementine seemed perfect to model this historical piece.  I’m not thrilled with how the center back pleat looks on my skirt, but imagine given more time & lots of math, I could improve my pleating skills?! ;’)

Jen’s pattern w/included AG size pattern pieces will be available within a week @:WrenFeathers’ Etsy Store!

Week 3’s pattern is now available & free today only/available for purchase next week on Etsy w/included AG sizing.

To see all Summer Sew-Along participants’ photos on Flickr go here.  Enjoy! 😉

WrenFeathers‘ annual Summer Sew-Along featuring an Edwardian summer wardrobe AND accessories for 16-inch dolls, such as AGAT and Sasha, is up and running! In this week’s post Jen explains how to reduce the pattern for Wellie Wishers or H4Hs!  You can go to Jen’s weekly post every Thursday for future Sew-Along challenges.  You MUST download the pattern each Thursday to participate in that week’s sew-along and receive a bonus sewing or craft pattern weekly (OR you can purchase the sew-along patterns later with added AG size and accessory patterns included through her Etsy store).

I’ve participated for several years and really enjoy Jen’s beautiful patterns and sewing challenge. Here’s my Week 1 result modeled by AGAT Clementine:
