Inspiration Board, July 2020
Hi everyone! We've been super busy behind the scenes preparing new content for you. Here's what you can look forward to:
This month! Two new skill-based video tutorials. One is an embellisment technique inspired by a garment Dita Von Teese wore, and the other is a highly-requested skill that you can apply to lots of projects.
August 1st *AND* September 1st: two brand new standalone patterns that you are going to love! Seriously, they are SO GOOD.
October and beyond! Embellishment techniques, pattern expansions, skill videos, and more!
I thought I'd share some of the inspiration images we've been looking at lately. (I know you're going to go all Nancy Drew on us, so just remember that these are just inspiration images that may or may not inspire future projects or patterns, not literal project images!) Do any of them strike you especially?
xoxo,
Gertie

I e been wanting to make a fitted tea timer set for ages!! I even have the vintage fabric set aside for it! ❤️🌺
Those trousers 😍😍😍
The pink dress is AMAZING! So cute with the pockets!!
I Love the ideas, I really hope for a pants or fitted skirt with a back 3/4 waist over skirt, I hope I make sense.
You motivated me to dig thru my bajillion of apron patterns. Found it! Too many distractions... Like those Hepburn pants. Another distraction, where's my skirt/pant stash... Anticipation...keepin' me waiting.
Anything Mrs. Maisel, please!! And yes to high waisted pants that give me Katherine Hepburn vibes. Throw some macabre halloween patterns in there and a tea time dress and I'm allllll over it. Soooo basically, everything then?
Love the spiderweb idea. I bet you could give us a beautiful appliqué for the stanwick. And I have been hoping for an apron pattern for ages.
Mrs.Maisle- I am obsessed with her style!!
The Hawaiian romper looks like the flower was used by the same fabric with some interfacing. What a cool bonus!
The spiderweb is enchanting! Love the crop top & skirt combo too
The slim dress, the flowers/corsage on the print romper set, the trousers. It all looks like fun.
Spiderweb Embellished Apron!!!😉
Ooh, that Cobbler's Apron is getting me, and the Tea Timer/ Hostess set. I love the idea of the trousers but fear they will have pleats (not a fan of pleats on my shape.
Pants pants pants pants pants - fitted high waisted wide wide wide leg glorious pants!!! and a teatimer please - love
Fun! I love the pants, the apron and the top and skirt in the lower left corner. So excited to see what you've got up your sleeve! 😁
I have the perfect fabric for a tea timer a la top left. I was thinking of adapting another pattern to make one, but if there was a Charm version...
Oooh, they all look great :) Can't wait to see what Aug and Sep brings ! :)
Those high waisted pants 😍
Also anything from you that is Mrs Maisel inspired will be amazing!
The Overskirt!! The spiderweb embellishments - perfect for Halloween :)
I hope those pants are the ones that have the buttons on the sides! I would so love how to make those 😍
I really love the front panel with the pockets and tie back on that apron!
Top right corner (more pockets!) and the overskirt at the bottom left corner

I love those trousers! Please! Specially the one that’s right around the ankles
I love the pink, "apronish" dress. One button in the neckarea. And a perfect apron for baking.
Ugh that spiderweb skirt is AMAZING and would totally go with an embroidered neckline I'm designing.
Overskirts, high waisted pants, and embellished skirts and dresses! 😍
J'adore!! The trousers!!
Oh yes trousers are my prefered. Thanxxx for sharing!
The tetimerq set I've been dying over that or a pake muu for awhile.

I’ve loved all the outfits on Mrs Maisel! Good to see her as inspiration on your board. Also really like the wee skirt on the bottom left!
The pants!!!!!!!
Spider skirt, the over skirt outfit, and the pant/ top outfit.
So excited! Can’t wait!!
That double skirt in the bottom left! 😍
I absolutely love the pants, the hostess tunique, the outfit with the overskirt. And the dress. Spider skirt not so much, but I come from a country with absolutely no Halloween culture, so I just don't feel the vibe. Very exciting all this! And I literally count the days to the 1st!
Absolutely squeeing at the tea timer hostess set. I have literally just been thinking the last few days or so how awesome it would be if you did a pattern for one!
Ooh so many but I love that apron, spider skirt and trousers.
Pants yes please! Spider skirt! Halloween here I come. And something Masiel!?! 😍🤤
The 🕸 skirt is literal goals!
Ooh! That tea-timer / hostess outfit! I have been dying for a pattern like that with the top & pants!! 😍😍
Those trousers!! And I rather love the idea of a kerchief-esque tank top with them.
Spiderweb!!! 🕷️🕸️ I am 100% a Halloween all year gal and I am LIVING since it's Hot Halloween rn.
I love the spider web skirt!!!
