To celebrate the christening of the new Boston BurdaStyle Sewing Club, I’d like to host a sewalong! Here are the two patterns that grabbed my eye, the Anda Dress:
The Anda Dress, $3.50 at burdastyle.com
or the Coffee Date Dress by the Selfish Seamstress: The SS has a great reader gallery of this pattern as well as some other downloads available.
The Coffee Date dress, free from burdastyle.com
Which one do y’all want to do? Right now I’m leaning towards the Coffee Date Dress, only partially because it’s free. Free is good. Did I mention that membership in the BSC is free? Nice, huh?
I’d like to get us meeting at least once a month. The first meeting will be on Wednesday, April 20th from 6-8pm at Grey’s. The location on Google Maps is here. There is lot parking available at 460 Harrison (right next to where Rocca used to be).
We can talk, snack, and get some free sewing in at the same time.
If you’d like to be a part of the new Boston BSC, just sign up here and come on down!
I like the Coffee Date dress – especially since the ruffles might add more in places where I could use some more, ummm, just more
I love the sewalong idea!! I tried the Anda dress, it turned out to be kind of huge and left me a bit unsatisfied. I’d be down for the Coffee Date.
Help, I have tried everything and can not download the Coffee Date dress. Any suggestion? I need the larger size.
