Newsflash: July Burda Full Preview Posted!
June 6, 2012
The German Burda website has posted the full preview of the garment images and line drawings for July. Overall I have to say this is my least favorite issue this year so far. There really aren’t any fabulously tailored pieces, and even their easy resort-wear is sort of a joke – let’s make things out … More Newsflash: July Burda Full Preview Posted!

May 29, 2012
If a sewing-obsessed person can’t sew up the patterns they are dreaming of, they apparently buy fabric to make up for it. A lot of fabric. A lot a lot of fabric. Too much fabric. So, um, yeah, I bought a lot of fabric from Fabric Mart… But to be fair, they were having a … More If One Can’t Sew…

May 23, 2012
Double header today – both the July Early Preview AND the Summer Butterick Patterns have been announced. As for the Burda announcement, well, I wasn’t too excited by the assortment of large, shapeless sacks I saw in many of the photos: Sack dress strikes again! Those shorts are not attractive.

The old French Burda website is soon to be no more, and they have moved to a new web address: http://www.burda.fr I can’t say I am a fan of the new website – it looks like they have very limited previews (only a few pictures and the table of contents). I am hoping that this … More New Burda France Website!

The latest round of New Look patterns can be seen here. We are definitely headed into summer, with most of the patterns being easy dresses, though there are a few wardrobe and skirt patterns, and lots of patterns for children and babies too. I don’t usually buy New Look unless I find something fabulous (for … More Newsflash – New New Look Patterns Announced!
