Hint for Tomorrow's Release!
Hi everyone! Believe it or not, tomorrow is July, which means a brand new monthly pattern and video. As always, we have something fabulous for you. Here's a little hint: it was inspired by something worn by the lovely lady above! What are your guesses, Nancy Drews?
We also just filmed a new fit clinic for those of you in the bonus tiers, so look out for that on July 15th. And, of course, we have some fun live events coming your way too. As always, thank you all so much for being patrons! It means the world to me that we can continue creating this new content every month.

She graduated from my high School!!!😁😁😁
Ginger forever. These shorts are FRINGETASTIC
What about the high-waisted trousers she wore in this movie, Follow the Fleet? There's a pair in what looks like satin with piping on the outseam that I could totally see paired with the Las Vegas halter...
It's probably going to be something we haven't got, or, that we haven't got in over a year/two years. Could be an updated version of an older pattern? The Loretta did come out this time 2 years ago, right? So totally could be a shorts pattern. Maybe more like the tighter sailor-esque, short playshorts? :) To go with the halter top ;)
Really, I love anything Ginger Rogers tap dances in and a sleeve expansion makes a lot of sense, but, also, she likes to choose the most obscure garment! Ginger Rogers has worn both a flight suit & mechanics overalls in 2 different movies, but she’s not known for those garments!
Maybe a swing dress
Anything with Ginger inspired bishop sleeve and a pussy bow and I’m a happy girl!
Perhaps the hints is more to do with the sleeves? What if we're getting a blouse/dress with fabulously drapey balloon sleeves? Though hopefully not as voluminous as the famous Elsa Schiaparelli ones? Hehehe
We already have a fabulous shorts pattern from Gertie. I am hopeful for something new. I never thought I'd need an artist apron but now, well, I have to have all the options. I can't wait to see what her imagination has dreamed up.
Is it Tap Shorts? Xxx
I think Gertie said it would be something that goes along with the Las Vegas Halter Top so I also think it’s a shorts or bottom of some sort. But I feel like tap shorts would be similar to the Lucille shorts so I don’t know…I would love a drapey, flowy, night gown/dress like others have speculated.
Maybe a I just killed my husband robe or that gorgeous black and floral outfit in the Robert Coburn photo.
Play suit!!
Ooohh a tennis short?
Maybe a Patsy sleeve expansion?
I really hope it's not shorts! Lol... For no more of a reason than my other sewing subscription's pattern that came a couple of days after the Elvis Halter was culotte style, wide leg shorts! I'd reallly love a slinky glamourous dress (but even if it *is* shorts, they'll be beautiful!)
I love the hints and everyone's guess. This makes tomorrow's release more fun and exciting!
Tap pants!
I’m guessing it’s NOT the fabulous gold bubble skirt in the opening credits of “The Barkley’s of Broadway” 😅
Something with a Fringe maybe...?
I was thinking the same thing!
Surely it won't be anything she is wearing in this photo? That would be too easy! 😆
I kid you not, in the past week I've been saving Ginger Rogers outfits to make, this being one of them. So happy we're getting something GR inspired.
Really hoping shorts of some kind!!
Please be short shorts!!!!
I'm thinking tap pants.
Adore ginger rogers style. I’ve always loved her gowns from her films with Fred. The feathered one in particular
I really really want a slinky elegant dress like she'd wear in the movies with Fred Astaire! We need a formal gown in the repertoire of patterns.
Honestly, I'm 1000000% ok with any part of this outfit 😍😍😍
Gertie, we feel like we're the lucky ones to have found you and that you share your vast talent and amazing creativity with us!
there's a quote that I absolutely love that goes "after all, Ginger Rogers did everything Fred Astaire did, but backwards and in heels!"
Play suit with coverup skirt thing! Or sailor type playsuit ?
I hope it’s the shorts. I can wear it to my ballroom classes!!
Please tell me it's tap shorts!!
Everyone is saying shorts which is getting me real excited because I need some 🙏🏼 however I will love anything 😍
My immediate image of Ginger is always an evening gown with huge feather trim. I'm guessing that's not going to be it 😂 But super excited about this inspiration!
That's what I want it to be 😂 but I'm guessing probably tap pants
Tap shorts with an option of adding a bodice to make it a playsuit!
I expect it will be shorts or a play suit but I’m hoping for a drapey strappy bias cut midi or maxi dress to make in satin.
This would be a dream!
Everything Ginger Rogers!!! Also... How is it almost July!!!
Also here for the tap shorts!
Ginger Rogers was a badass on high heels and I can wait to get my grubby fingers on something inspired by her.
Tap pants?
Well since you always read my mind, and I've been saying I need a good pair of shorts, I'm gonna guess some fabulous shorts lol
A twirling dancing dress, that's my Ginger fantasy...
But I don't think it fits that well with this year theme...
Hoping for the heart sweater!
Ginger Rogers? Hmmmm…..
Tap shorts!
Hoping for shorts!
Please be adorable shorts!!
I’m hoping for short shorts! It’s summer after all ♥️
