Fall Vogues and More

I'll start by saying, my Hancock had them in stock and I only bought one, V9132.





I love this for a fall skirt! I might try to color block, we'll see. The finished length is 19" so I will add a couple inches. The 19" length could work with tights once the weather cools way down.

Other patterns I liked, but not enough to add to the 500+ collection:

V1466; the jacket didn't move me but that skirt! It looks like it would have so much life.


V1465; the pieces are interesting; I just don't think I need them.


V9136; super cute. This one may make it in at some point.


V1460; Beautiful. For the right body type...


V1463: again, gorgeous details but...I'll pass for now.

V1464: SAILOR PANTS! With BUTT PRINCESS SEAMS!!!



V1467; I love this jacket but helloooooo! I know McCall Co could have done something about the blingy buttons.


And then...



1458 is a hard no for me. Too many details to the point of looking ridiculous.


1457 had my interest until I looked closer...


Meh.


9124: WHY?


9128: I don't know about those seams on a full bust...


So yeah, kind of a middle-of-the-road release for me.


I am still needing to hem my V8805 dress (tomorrow?)  But of course I've since started a new project:


I've placed a couple of FM orders recently and for now, this stack of fabric has my attention: 


1&2) Cotton shirting for B6183
3) rayon challis (pattern undertermined)
4&5) Cotton shirting for Burda 7136

That's the plan at least!
