Basic Bodice Design Series!

Get Excited!
Starting next week, we are having a really fun series.


This series will be spread out over the next few months, mixed in with our regular posts.  

The idea is that SO MANY amazing dresses start with a basic bodice pattern.  

All you have to do, is make some small adjustments to that pattern, and add fun skirts/sleeves/embellishments - and magic happens.  
So we (Autie and I, as well as our amazing line-up of guests) are 
going to take a basic bodice pattern, which everyone has access to, 
and show how to take that pattern 
and make something amazing from it.  

Now for the SUPER AWESOME lineup:

I will kick things off next week, then as for our guests:

November

Elizabeth and liZ from Simple Simon and Co.
An from Straight Grain
Jessica from Me Sew Crazy

December

Stefanie from Girl. Inspired
Kate from See Kate Sew
Alida from Alidamakes.com

January

Shauna from Shwin and Shwin
Delia from Delia Creates
Cherie from You and Mie
Abby from Sew Much Ado

Throughout the months, Autie and I will have a few more to add, as well.

ONE MORE THING!  

We want you to sew along!  
We will be having Linky Parties for those who want to sew along!  
We want to see your creations! They can be anything you sew using a basic bodice pattern.  
We will be highlighting our favorites in coming posts.  The first one will be mid-November to give you time to get working.
