My first post is dedicated to a sew-a-long challenge posted by another blogger ShelleyJ HERE. It's the Plain Pattern Project. The challenge is to take a "plain" pattern you've never used before and make 3 versions of it: the 1st is meant to be as close to the original pattern as possible and the 2nd and 3rd can be any altered/crazy variation you want.
I've decided to attempt this challenge with Simplicity's 3673 pattern which is a 1950's reproduction jumper dress.
I'm still trying to decide between the straight and full skirt option but I already know what my 2nd altered version is going to be. I'm hoping to use fabric from my stash for at least 2 of the versions. I think I might have to buy fabric for at least one of the looks so that there's some variation as I have a tendency to hoard similar fabrics.
