I started writing this post last night, but then the lightning started. Then came the hail. Then the lights went out... so the blogging had to wait until today. Here goes...
I have two exciting new additions to my sewing collection! The Built by Wendy Coats and Jackets book and the Negroni men's shirt pattern from Colette patterns.I bought this Colette pattern to make a shirt for my boyfriend. I've made button down shirts for women before, so hopefully this pattern won't be too difficult. Plus, I have the men's shirt sew along on Male Pattern Boldness to look to as a helpful reference.
I think I'll work on the jean jacket first from the Built by Wendy book, except I want to use corduroy in place of denim.Hopefully these new patterns will give me some motivation to start sewing again!
I love her patterns and would love to check out the book!! look forward to seeing your version of men's shirt and the jacket :)
