The Fall/Winter Burda Easy Magazine has been announced on both the German and Russian websites! Burda Easy is one of the Burda publications I used to ignore – I felt like the designs were too simple and not the more classic and elegant Burda styles that I really love. Over the past few years, though, … More Burda Easy Fall/Winter 2016
I’ve spent about a week getting caught up at work since getting home from Nationals, but it feels like I’ve fallen incredibly far behind on sewing news because EVERYONE has released their fall patterns! I’ve got reviews for McCall’s, Butterick, New Look, and Simplicity coming up, not to mention that the Burda Easy Fall/Winter Magazine … More September 2016 BurdaStyle Magazine
It’s that time again – another new Burda is headed our way. I’m always excited when the August issue rolls around – I’m typically a big fan of Burda’s fall and winter fashions. And I’m happy to say that I think this year’s issue starts fall sewing off on a high note. There are lots … More BurdaStyle Magazine August 2016
In honor of finally being finished with sewing skating costumes for regionals (the nationals pile is still quite high, but I’ll get there soon enough), I’m actually *gasp* writing a post. I’ve still got a bit of an E6000 high going on from gluing the rhinestones, so you’ll hopefully forgive me if I’m a bit … More BurdaStyle Magazine July 2016
The Fall/Winter issue of My Image Magazine is here! My Image is one of the newer pattern magazine – this is issue #13 of their biannual publication. I’ve only made one of their patterns so far, but I love it and wear it obsessively, so I’ve continued to order their magazine, even though their designs … More Fall/Winter 2016 My Image Magazine (Issue #13)
The June issue of the Burda magazine has been announced (and shipped! – mine just showed up today). I’ve been a bit luke-warm towards Burda lately, but I have to admit I really like this issue. I think there are some really nice designs here. I’m also excited to see that Burda has used the … More June 2016 Burdastyle Magazine
The full preview for the May Burda has been up on the Russian site for a few weeks now… but I haven’t been feeling particularly inspired to blog about it. Usually May is the month of the fun spring dresses, but this year if feels as though we are already fully into loose fitting summer … More May 2016 BurdaStyle Magazine
I’ve been looking for an official announcement of the Burda Plus magazine on the Russian website, so I was a bit surprised when it arrived in the mail and I hadn’t seen a full preview posted for it anywhere. Turns out the German Burda site has the patterns up for sale, even though the Russian … More Burda Plus Magazine Spring/Summer 2016
The Spring/Summer issue of Burda Easy has been posted on the Russian website. The Burda Easy magazine always has fewer (usually simpler) styles than the monthly magazines, but it always has better instructions, so it can be a good place to start for Burda newbies. The summer issue has a lot of fairly generic stuff … More 2016 Spring/Summer Burda Easy Magazine
So I am incredibly far behind on posting recent pattern releases – I’ve got Simplicity, Vogue, McCall’s, and Burda Easy Magazine in the queue. I’ve also been incredibly busy – so no idea when those posts will actually show up. Not to mention a pattern review that needs to get written. Between work, work, more … More April 2016 BurdaStyle Magazine
