Colette's Clothing Confections

Sarai has just released a sneak peek of her first collection of sewing patterns called Colette Patterns. They were definitely worth the wait.

A few months ago, I missed out on getting to test one of these patterns for her and have been curious as to what she would choose for her first foray into sewing patterns. Well, these are truly delicious. They are full of retro details that invoke a time gone by AND they are named after sweet dessert items.

So go to the Colette Patterns site to see the preview of items with names like Chantilly (my favorite of the dresses), Beignet, Macaron, Parfait, etc.

Best of all, the patterns are sized from 0 to 18 with a range that includes women with measurements from 33-25-35 to 46-38-48.

Sarai, if you end up designing another full skirted, wasp-waisted design anytime soon, may I suggest the name Ambrosia?
