Hint for Tomorrow's Release
Ooh, it's time to close those school books and head to the beach! Tomorrow's pattern is inspired by vacation wear of yore but can be made in different fabrics to be boudoir-appropriate or even formal wear! That's a very cryptic clue, but you are so very good at guessing . . .
Whatever could it be? Please leave your best guess in the comments, and we'll find out tomorrow who was the closest.
xoxo,
Gertie

Would it be possible to have an extension with some of the lovely accessories such as a snood, an embellished (bow added) snood, a pillbox or large brimmed hat, etc.?
I'm thinking maybe a bias cut dress/cami/teddy which is also a 20ies beach pyjamas?
It's beach pyjamas
A beach cover up dress, oh I hope so!
Oh yes, now I see why people are saying beach pajamas!
A sarong?
Beach jacket wrap?
But beach pyjamas is too obvious from the hint. She always does something unexpected
Yeah, add me to the Beach Pajama list. If that’s the case, I am tickled!! I love Beach Pajamas and have a set from the 1920s!
Maybe beach pajamas! I found these old photos on Pinterest and I am now in love with beach pajamas https://www.vintag.es/2017/03/32-glamorous-photos-of-pajamas-styles.html?m=1
Oh my days I'd feel like an old Hollywood star in these so glam x
Something magnificent
Surely it WONT be beach pyjamas…. Since there’s already a free Charm pattern for these… https://charmpatterns.com/harlow-pajamas/
Thank you for sharing this link for the newbies that just found out about charm patterns!
A beach wrap? I DO love the idea of an oversized sunhat, bigger than the Mary Sun Hat . Also, how about a beach dress with multiple straps, some of which can be hidden to create different looks?
A slinky cover dress possibly bias cut!
Something that can be a bodice or combined with pants to be a full outfit?
I had never heard of beach pajamas and went right down that rabbit hole of magic! Swoon the 1930's ones! ❤️
Ooh I hope it’s beach pyjamas! I’ve always loved how versatile and chic they are
Bias gown
A slip dress xxx
Beach pyjamas?!
Yeah... light airy dress with open back and spaghetti stripes would be loooovely.
Has to be Beach PJs please…
Caftan maybe? Lightweight woven for beach cover up, sheer for "boudoir", silk for formal.
I'm really hoping slip dress and that's on the list of stuff I want to make and I have been having trouble finding a pattern that I like for one
Hoping for a nice sun dress
My guess goes to slip dress.
Like so many of you, I had to google beach pajamas and I am in love 😍. YASSS to beach pajamas!!!!
It must be done type of slip dress. Satin for formal, linen for the beach and chiffon for boudoir
Last Summer’s Barbara has been one of my FAVORITE Gertie patterns.. I’m about to Google what ‘Beach Pajamas’ are.. and I would LO-O-OVE another favorite Summer sundress pattern! 👗🧵💕
whatever it is I hope it completely covers the straps of my modern bra
Oh, I can't wait! :D
Totally thinking beach pajamas!
Beach pajamas would be perfect.
Slipdress?
Ooooo Beach pajamas with a shorts option? Long and luxurious or short and cute?
I keep hoping for a bias cut slip dress!!!
So am I
I was hoping for beach pajamas but maybe a cover up (wrap dress style) is more likely??
Beach pants/ pj's
BEACH PAJAMAMAMAMAMAS!!!!! 🏖️
Oooooohhhh
I’m so excited. I’m in need of whatever this is!
Im also hoping for beach pajamas.
Slip dress would be great. As far as the picture it would be too on the nose, most likely something else.
I'm hoping for tap shorts!
The ginger sailor pants has a tap short option. Although Gertie calls them hot pants.
A coverup .. and it looks like a totally sexy one! Definitely what I need #excited xx
Having now looked up at what beach pjs are, that is also my hope/guess
Okay, I must be living in a bubble, what in the world are beach pajamas??? My guess is a swimsuit cover/ sundress.
I’m wondering the same thing.
Ohh hoping for beach pajamas ❤️❤️❤️
I have a two piece beach wear with a halter tie top and a sarong style skirt that once was my grandmothers. Would love for something like that
There is a pattern like that of Gertie’s. Not the Charm site or the Charm Patreon, but a pattern before that.
Something in the resort wear sort of look! Hoping!!
Would love a comfy sundress for the summer months! ❤️
Yes!
Top that can go with culottes bottoms to make beach pajamas or skirt patterns to make cocktail dresses, evening gowns or negligees.
A little sun dress that also serves as a swimming wrap?
Beach romper of some sort?!
Beach Pajamas! Oh, Pleeeeease! Or a versatile sundress for a variety of fabrics would be lovely, too.
Beach pyjamas!!! Ooooo yes please 🙏 😍
And there I was confident that I would get all my holiday sewing done with ease 🤣😍
Fingers crossed for beach pajamas too, but a fun strappy sundress sounds lovely too!
If it's something for the culottes, I'm not certain if I should feel happy or devastated. I'm sewing up two right now, the first time sewing this pattern, and I'm so close to being done! I had so many other projects lined up and now I'm getting pulled back in to do more beach wear?! The sewing struggle is so real
Bias cut slip dress?
Beach pajamas!!!
A swim cover-up would be nice!
A nice spaghetti strap sundress/nightgown/swim dress maybe? Going on a cruise end of summer, so always looking for something to make for elegant nights. :)
Beach pyjamas.
Slip dress?
Beach Pajamas!!!
Sophia Loren inspired slinky sundress? Long and chiffon nightie version or midi length tie on cotton sundress?
Cannot wait!!
Also, does anyone know of a pattern for a fabric version of that hat? It’s stunning!!!
I don’t know of a fabric one, but I did see this placemat-to-Sun hat sewing hack a few years ago that I’ve been meaning to try: https://youtu.be/RXJAmXbLS-0?si=BN1xlZVjQ7SgVFYo It looks pretty straight forward as long as your machine can do a zigzag! And here are some placemats in many colors: https://www.target.com/p/polyround-charger-placemat-blue-threshold-8482/-/A-79575382?sidd=3351S&ref=tgt_adv_xsp&AFID=google&fndsrc=tgtao&DFA=71700000012764142&CPNG=PLA_Dining%2BShopping_Local%7CDining_Ecomm_Home&adgroup=SC_Dining_Table+Lined&LID=700000001170770pgs&LNM=PRODUCT_GROUP&network=g&device=m&location=9007535&targetid=pla-1484826658754&ds_rl=1246978&ds_rl=1247068&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAAD-5dfbBiM9TaKdrwYfihmUQNCZyh&gclid=Cj0KCQjw6uWyBhD1ARIsAIMcADrGzCsL0sZfP01k3ALSBS0XfMNskI0LlZ1rA9M7hj7G1t_FqeXPqV8aAmDtEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds
Beach pajamas is my first guess…
Happy for anything that vibes with this picture! 😎
Beach pajamas would be divine or lounge suits fingers crossed 🤞
If it's backless, or similar to the photo, I'm out. I need a bra!
Amen to this! And I can’t do strapless bras because of the silicone they use. 😢
I said it during the Crowdcast but this convinces me even more it's 1930s beach pajamas! ☺️
My first thought was "omg please let it be beach pajamas!"
A kimono to go over the Elsa culottes??
Beach pajamas? I’m definitely stoked for comfy summer clothes😍
Beach pajamas?!
Sundress
1930s resort wear!!!
Hopefully something I can wear a bra with!!
Beach PJs??? 🙏 🙏 🙏
I second beach pajamas!
