    This is so cute! I love the peplum! I haven’t really sewn much for myself, but this kind of makes me want to try.

    I’m not sure I can tell you how much I love this while keeping my language appropriate for the forum.

    Whoa, is the unmentionable going to happen when your patterns arrive? Haha. Another big fan of the peplum, here, after seeing Marie Michelle’s gorgeous outfits with them.

    Not sure, but I will say that I can’t stop thinking about the dress version having a steamy tryst with a cut of Liberty in my stash.

    Now then, Mel, keep yourself “nice”. (sounds great, said in a whisper).

    It looks good. We like the princess line type dress.

    Simplicity patterns o sale at Joann this weekend. I’m heading out bright and early tomorrow with two kids in tow to get this new pattern. Fingers crossed they don’t drive me nuts. I planned to check out the lisette fabrics too.

    Why do I ever bother shopping at Joann? I schlepped all the way out there this morning and they didn’t have the new Simplicity patterns! I am so angry. I think they purposely set these sales to get you in, then don’t have the stuff you actually went for in the hopes that you’ll go back another time. It’s really obnoxious. I have a napping child and a school pickup, so this trip killed our entire morning. You know, I really hate that store. Whay do I ever give them my business? Why aren’t there more alternatives?

    So I have nothing to report about the new Lisette pattern which looks so amazing! I had hoped to maybe take a crack at it over the weekend, but I guess I can’t. I guess I’ll have to cough up the list price. And shipping. And the gas I wasted getting out there and the lunch we had to buy for hungry and cranky kids. Who nevertheless had a breakdown in the cafe. And on the way home so we had to pull over on the highway. Last time I went, I had the other child with me and the whole experience was so horrible, I had to buy him a toy for being so patient. I don’t think I actually save any money at that store, whatever their sales may be.

    Ha! Same thing happened to me meleliza! My kids all act like little hooligan wild animals whenever I step foot in there. I had to let the baby chew on a pack of buttons to keep him from screaming today (which is so wrong for so many reasons!)
