GARDEN PARTY PATTERNS by see kate sew

Welcome to the GARDEN PARTY! I’m excited to launch 6 new women’s patterns today! I’ve been working on this collection for months and months, mostly in secret, and I’m thrilled to release it today! I wanted this collection to embody summer with feminine and flowy silhouettes and fabrics for warmer weather. I put as many fun elements as I could into this collection, like collars and buttons and pockets. These pieces can be worn to the park, the farmer’s market, a summer barbeque, downtown, uptown or even to …. a garden party!

There are 4 dresses in this collection and 2 summery tops. I named each pattern with some of my favorite names for girls, so I’m thrilled to introduce you to: SOPHIE, CALLIE, MAIA, OLIVE, EMALINE and ADELAIDE!

    These are all so beautiful! I just purchased the Callie top… so pretty. I usually sew for my kiddos, but have recently sewing more for myself, so I’m excited to try. Thanks so much! :)

    Your photography is really pretty! :)

    I do have somewhat negative feedback about the patterns, though. That Sophie dress looks all wonky in the bust area there. It’s pulling across the chest to the underarm as well.

    The waistline of the Olive dress looks high, as thought the bodice is too short for that style. (But that might just be personal opinion. Heh.)

    I kind of feel the same way about the Emaline. If the waistband sat on the waist (instead of doing the empire thing), I would be more likely to want to make it. I think the combination of pleats and wide waistband just doesn’t work for me as empire (one or the other I’d probably like better), because the pleats puff out just where belly fat usually does. It could work well for maternity, I guess, but since I’m not pregnant, I prefer to define my waist.

    ANYWAY, I like the Maia dress. I’d like to make it as a nighty! :) I think my issues with the patterns (aside from the fit of the Sophie), could just be personal taste and differing body type. But I thought I’d send you the feedback anyway, because I am your target buyer, I think.

    Keep learning and making mistakes!
