Happy National Sewing Month Everyone!!  What are your sewing plans for the month of September?  Do you plan to venture outside of your “sewing box” at all?  I do.  I’m in the process to working on something I’ve never done before and will be doing a reveal soon.  It’s totally out of my “garment” sewing wheel house, but a technique I’ve been wanting to try for a long long time.  Join me this month in trying something different, will you?  How about trying a New Dress Pattern.

Here are 2 New Dress Pattern suggestions to get you going:

The first one is the “Entice Me” Dress Pattern from Pattern Emporium.  It’s a fitted dress that has all the va va voom for the upcoming holiday season!  This pdf pattern is designed for stretch knits, has 4 lengths and 7 sleeve options.  Mix and match a multitude of different neckline options for different looks. This pattern is also size inclusive from 2-20.  There’s also an add-on pattern that includes a cowl back and much more.  Best of all, the add-on pack is on Sale, but not for much longer.  Less than a day left, so hurry!!  Here’s the LINK to head over to the Pattern Emporium website to check out the “Entice Me” Dress.

The second pattern is the Antrim Dress, from Itch to Stitch.  This is a fit & flare knit dress pattern which is a very flattering silhouette.  It features a faux wrap bodice with a softy gathered waistband.  Best of all, it has cup sizing to help you achieve a custom fit.  It also has the “P” word!!  Pockets!! This is also a size inclusive pattern offering sizes from size 00-40.  Check out the details Here.  This pattern is also on SALE right now, so enjoy a discount!!

I hope you’ll be giving one of these patterns a try for National Sewing Month!  It’s always a great idea to try something different and add to your sewing skills.  Both of these styles are super flattering and can be made office appropriate or for a special occasion.  The holiday’s are right around the corner.   Enjoy!!
