The first day of the Sewing & Stitchery Expo is complete-and we had a blast! It’s always so fun to meet & be reintroduced to all of our loyal & inspiring customers. We love when customers come up to the booth wearing our patterns. Whether the patterns (and fabric too) were purchased in our booth last year, or many years before, it’s always fun to see how each individual creates the pattern for them. The fabric choices, the design elements, the details that really make the garment all about them!

Here are just a few great pictures that I captured today.

This Trio Top is fabulous! The blend of black & white cottons and linens is subtle, yet dramatic with the piecing in front, as well as on the back yoke.

Here’s the woman responsible for numerous Tosca Dress sales today! She’s simple & elegant in her black jacquard Tosca. She left out all the pockets but made sure to add the tucks in front. Love it!

3 Layers of the San Diego Jacket as a shirt, jacket & coat! Great combo as always Karen! Karen has created three different garments using the same San Diego Jacket pattern. Coordinating in black & white, all the pieces fit together seamlessly.

Marilynn has been such a great addition to our booth the past 4 years. This year she showed up to help with her wonderful smile & beautiful Valencia Jacket. Again, I see a trend with the black & white. Timeless combination? Oh Yes, I think so!

Thanks Ladies!
