After Thursdays Club meet i was very inspired by the other members. I had originally planned to make Jorinde, Linda and Ute but discovered i don’t have enough fabric for the Linda skirt i wanted to make and realised that i’m not really much of a a blouse kind of girl so i’m in the process of rethinking my ‘wardrobe’. While i do that i am going to get started on my Jacket, i’m using the Jorinde pattern and have had fabric sitting in my stash for this project for about 2 years now, put it this way, i was pregnant when i bought it and Heidi turns 2 next month! Anyway, i’ll be doing the sensible thing and will be making a muslin from calico to check on the fit before cutting into my beautiful fabric.
I’m also considering making the Anita skinny jeans, another Kasia (using the fabric i didn’t have enough of for Linda) and a few Lydia long sleeve tee’s.
I’m also adding a few non BurdaStyle items into my wardrobe such as the stole i am knitting, a new hat and some tops made from tessuti’s new pattern (which will be available soon), i’d also like to add a little vintage to the mix by using some of my vintage patterns, oooh and a bag, i need a new bag right? OK, my mind is running off ahead and my lack of time can’t keep up!
I have a feeling things will change as time goes by, new fabrics in store get my imagination running riot, i see what others are making and i get inspired or my tastes change. I’d like to see my ‘wardrobe’ come together in a way that it will combine well enough, i know i like green and other earthy colours but i do like a splash of bright colour now and again.
