C . W : Patterns


Changing Wardrobes : 


Patterns : Nov 2018 & Nov 2008



Left Nov.2018, Prima Blazer Pattern, Right Nov.2008, Prima Wrap/Loose Coat Pattern


Both of these patterns were given to me, passed on from a non-sewer, to add to my collection. Left is a blazer pattern from Nov.2018, with 3 options, 2 x for pockets, including a welt option and 1x without pockets. Though loose on the model, with the darts in the front this could be highly customisable for fabrics and fit. Also the options would allow for more advanced options e.g. welt pockets.
The pattern on the right is a loose coat with a tie, and simple, bagged pockets. Only a little longer in the body than the option pattern, and with looser fit, this could make a comfy wrap for going outside. This coat will allow for a quick project and 






Both of these patterns were brought while I was in Derby - but on separate visits to the market stall, about 2013-2015. This was one of my favourite stalls as they had a great collection of printed fabrics, patterns, and they often had swatches for pennies. Great for tests, mock up, illustrations, and research for sketchbooks. 


These two Butterwick patterns are of two very different styles of dresses in the construction and structure of them. 


The left pattern 5827 appears to be very simple with the option for contrasting fabrics and high keyhole opening.
