It is so beautiful, it's not just me is it?
I don't know if you can see in this photo but the zip is offset, as it's incorporated into one of the back seams. I might have done some actual skipping when I spotted that!
This is it, one side of instructions, it's either very easy or there's an assumption of knowledge - I guess we'll see.
I'm really impressed with the service, I ordered from an Etsy seller (CloesCloset) - I'm not sure I'm helping myself announcing this but I know of at least one person who is keen to get her hands on a Vogue Valentino pattern! On that note Sam hold fire - I might have had a bit of luck and a Plan if you're up for it. I'll email you later ;)
I only ordered it late last Thursday. It arrived today (public holiday & weekend in between) beautifully packaged (I could have shown you if I hadn't opened it in unseemly haste), all pattern pieces ironed and with a little gift of 6 pink buttons. I love those little touches and I think this is worth every penny.
Right, got to get a grip - "I will not start this until I have made my cape" and repeat...

Oh yes, that is very, very gorgeous. The offset zip is one of those details that really marks it out as a designer couture pattern. You MUST NOT start it until you've made your cape though!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to find out what your plan is!!
Oh, hello rad pattern! Do you have a fabric picked out for this yet?
ReplyDeleteIsn't it a wonder? I love it, the line drawings on the instructions are fab, I'm bowled over! I have a fabric dilemma - I really need to work through some of my stash but I don't think I've got anything to do this justice, my first pick isn't going to cut it! So, as a muslin is going to be needed first, I'm going to knock that up out of a sheet and buy myself some time to make a decision!
