Sewing Pattern I Want to Make in 2020- Part 1

Although we’re over halfway through the month of January, I wanted to talk about my current sewing plans. I have too many sewing plans to talk at length about (And the piles of fabric I need to sew to prove it) but I have several sewing patterns I want to use to make them. So, I wanted to talk about all the sewing patterns I want to make this year. Or the beginning of the year. Depends when I get around to making them.

Since I have so many sewing patterns I want to make, I decided to split the sewing patterns into three posts.

The first sewing pattern I want to make this year is McCall’s M8029…

This is the first sewing pattern I’m currently working on. I already cut out the fabric to make the cape and all I need to do is sew it. I’m very impressed with the pattern so far and I’m very optimistic I will finish this cape before the end of the month.

The next sewing pattern I want to make is McCall’s M7847…

I’m not sure which sewing pattern I will make after McCall’s M8029, but I’m seriously considering McCall’s M7847. I already have the fabric to make it, so it’s a logical choice. Plus, I want to wear it before the weather gets too warm for me to wear it.

The next sewing pattern I want to make is Simplicity 1731…

I already own the fabric I want to make this pattern out of, so all I need to do is actually make it.

The next sewing pattern I want to make is McCall’s M8026…

I have the fabric to make this pattern, but I’m not sure if I will use the fabric to make this pattern. After picking out this pattern and buying the fabric, Simplicity and McCall’s released new top sewing patterns I really like and think will work better with the fabric. I’m still thinking about and, since I’m making the first three patterns in this post first, I’m not going to stress about if I should or should not use the fabric to make this pattern. Worst case scenario I can go back to JoAnn’s and by more fabric to make this pattern and another one. 🙂

The last sewing pattern I want to make is Vogue V8789…

This pattern is one I owned a few years ago, but sold on Etsy because it was too small for me. I recently repurchased this pattern in the correct size so I plan on making it again. I have some fun tropical themed fabric I found in the clearance section of JoAnn’s that I want to use to make view B out of. I’m not sure if I will use the fabric to make view B of this pattern, partly because I don’t know if I will look good with a boat neckline and partly because I don’t know if the fabric will look good when made into the dress. Like with the shirt, I’m still thinking about this and, since I’m not going to make it right now, I have time to think about it.

That’s all for now! Thank you for reading!
