I would definitely choose the Tikva trench.

I would go for Kristen #6046! I can imagine it being very classy in black wool in combination with cream white laces.

I use the lydia as a block for a lot of knitwear. I’d do a few knit dresses and a flowy cardigan based on the lydia pattern.

Hello David!!! Yes I would try to make own pattern before aspiring to the ‘fashion designer’ denomination. So far I have been toying about with the Marilyn pattern. XX

The girl’s shift dress #148 because children’s wear is where it’s at! Completely versatile, full of design opps, and adorable.

MadisonAF23! Classy with a modern twist. There is so much you could do with that look to create a complete line.

I would start my line up with the Paolo Plus dress. I’m imagining it with a white collar, blue body, and gold buttons.

The alison bathing suit- would make a fantastic starting point for undies!

The Malissa Dress for sure. It’s so versatile and easy to modify.

I think I’d use the Ute blouses! I made two of them for myself and love them. A very cute and versatile pattern.

I’d love to make the Larissa jacket (#6032) in a crazy vintage fabric.

Without a doubt, the 50’s petticoat. Love it!
Oct 7, 2010, 03.03 PMby beesknees7
Definitely the 50s petticoat. IA w/the previous commenter about it setting a great retro tone as the base of a collection. You could build so much around that one item.
Oct 7, 2010, 02.42 PMby danielledonohue
I would go with the coat with belt #136. Very elegant

It would be the fifties style petticoat. I would design a whole collection of complimentary items to go with it because it definitely sets its own tone and I love the softness of it all
