It's better to be late learning about the new patterns from June than to never get to see all the goods!

June gave us 32 new or re-released sewing patterns, and 8 new designers were added to the Designer Database. (NOTE: they are not yet officially added to the Database sheets. I'm hopeful to have it fixed by tomorrow night but the Database needed some backend work and I didn't want to delay the roundup any longer to do it!)

The end of June into the beginning of July has been insanely busy for me - so it meant the roundup is a touch late this month. Hopefully you all have been busy enough to not notice. 😉

As an added, teaser... I want to let you all know that the #SewingCPD Challenge will be returning for 2022 and there is at least one super awesome prize already lined up! Get ready for October!

We're camping this weekend at a campground on the ocean (well, a cove, not open ocean) and this morning my outfit included this so-far undocumented @cashmerette Fuller Cardigan.

The fabric is a super fuzzy knit I got from a FB swap page, and the buttons are from my Grammie's button basket.

I should have shortened the sleeves 1-2", but that's a typical adjustment for me (that I also typically forget to do). The sleeves are a bit too roomy for me, in terms of circumference. I find that true of a lot of patterns. I think I like my sleeves tighter than the average person. 🤷‍♀️

Pattern: @cashmerette #FullerCardigan
Size: 26E/F graded to 30 for the waist and hips
Fabric: I think it was called "faux cashmere" by the person I got it from.

SISTERHOOD OF THE TRAVELING FABRIC Nearly a year

SISTERHOOD OF THE TRAVELING FABRIC

Nearly a year ago Jaszmine (@jaszminehoward) and Sarah (@curvypatterndatabase) had a video call in a @mardensmaine fabric section and both loved this loud fabric. They decided that they just HAD to have matching @closetcorepatterns Kalle shirts. Sarah bought 4 yards for herself and 7 yards for Jaszmine (who was thinking she wanted to make a set!) and shipped it down to her.

But, since they're both people who always have more than one project in mind they kept putting off their Kalle dreams. It's not like they were going to see each other or anything, right? It was just going to be for some Insta posts.

In comes the @topstitchatl sewing retreat! They were both going! Their friends were going! And shit, they gotta make those Kalles! Jaszmine realized she didn't really want to make a set since it is A LOT of pattern to that fabric - so they got some other friends in on the Kalle sisterhood!

Sarah in Maine cut her Kalle out first, and had a yard left that she shipped right to Liebs (@liebs_m) in Georgia. Jaszmine in Maryland cut her Kalle from the fabric she had and shipped it to Hales (@sewnlyfriends) in Alabama. From there Hales cut her Kalle and her parter drove the remaining fabric over to Liebs for the final Kalle to be cut!

On the third day of the Topstitch retreat phrases like "there are more of you?!" And "which one is that; I can't tell people apart quickly with these matching shirts" and "they're everywhere I look" were heard as the sisterhood donned their finished Kalles!

Lots of laughs and fun were had taking these photos and the sisterhood is already keeping their eyes open for the next great fabric to start sharing!

I've started the process of traveling back home from the retreat - I'm spending the night in Atlanta then flying home tomorrow. It was a great experience in every way. The people were amazing. The food was amazing. The weather was amazing. Etc, etc, etc.

This is the Deer and Doe Sirocco as photographed from one of the exceptionally large bathrooms in the "barn house". Size 58 graded to 60 for the waist and hips in a study but stretchy jersey from Joann.
