Pattern dilema

Miss Crayola Creepy 8:00 AM 3 comments
Debi asked a good question over at The Sew Weekly,  "are you a pattern first or fabric first type of sewist?" Well, normally I am the pattern first type, but then I got to thinking about these red shoes.


I bought them for myself last year and haven't even worn them yet. Isn't that terrible? Then I started thinking about why I haven't worn them and it's because I don't have an outfit for them. I imagine myself wearing them with a light pink dress, maybe with some light yellow details...? But I still need a pattern, any recommendations? Does this make me an accessories first type of sewist? :)

    oohhh! Fabulous shoes!! I definitely think it's accessories first. I think that goes quite well with being a pattern first type person. I love picking a pair of shoes and then building a mini-wardrobe around them! Can't wait to see what you make to match these gems!!

    Oh yes, the good ol' pattern or fabric causality.. I'm always the pattern first, purely because I can't handle the idea of not having enough fabric on hand, or just as bad - having too much! Even if I'm in a fabric store & fall head over heels for something special, I pull out my phone which has a list of all the patterns I own & their fabric requirements. Hmm, re-reading that makes me seem a tad wierd... But it works!

    No, that's not weird at all!! It sounds amazing, I wish I was that organized!
