New Year Giveaway

Happy New Year everyone, here's to another great sewing year.  I've just got back from my trip and have a huge amount of blog posts to catch up on.  I don't want to miss anything so I will try and look through them all but forgive me if comments are a bit thin on the ground for a while.  I'm especially loving the 2011 annual reviews.


Having been the lucky recipient of 2 giveaways at the end of last year I thought I would kick off 2012 with a pattern giveaway.  Some of these are the wrong size for me, duplicates or just no longer fit my lifestyle.  No rules, no restrictions, I'd just like these to go to someone who will use them.  Leave a comment with the pattern you would like to win & I'll do a random draw if there is more than one name per pattern.  I will do the draw on Monday 16th Jan Hong Kong time so get your comments in by Saturday 14th to cover all timezones!

Just one thing to note - a peek in the envelopes tells me all these patterns are uncut, but I haven't opened them all to double check.


1) Vogue 2463 Bill Blass Jacket & Pants, Size 14-16-18

2) Vogue 2588 Calvin Klein Jacket & Pants, Size 14-16-18

3) Vogue 2513 Guy Laroche Jacket & Skirt, Size 12-14-16

4) Vogue 2679 NYNY Tops and Pant, Size 8-10-12

5) Vogue 2074 Easy Options skirts and tops, Size 14-16-18

6) Vogue Wardrobe, Evening pieces, Size 12-14-16 (envelope in a sorry state but pattern & instructions are fine).

7) Vogue 9907, Jacket/Coat, Size 14-16-18 (some damage to envelope)

8) Vogue 7682 Vogue Woman Jacket, Pants, Skirt, Size 8-10-12

9) Butterick 5173 Maggy London knit dress, Size 8-10-12-14 (This pattern was reissued due to a printing error, this is the revised & corrected version).

10) Butterick 3397 Fast & Easy Basics, Fly front skirts, pants and shorts, Size 14-16-18

11) Vogue 7648 Wide legged mock wrapped pantskirt (or long skort if you like), Size 12-14-16

  5. Hello Allison,
    something went wrong with my post, so I try again. I really like Vogue 2074 best, it's my size and has so many options.
    Happy new year to you, Ute.

  9. Oh wow, thank you for hosting this! We moved to Macau from the U.S. six months ago, and I sure miss being able to pick up patterns at the local fabric shop. I love all the patterns, but the one that I really, really would like is number 10, Butterick 3397. The patterns I brought with me are sadly lacking in a basic short/pant with zipper, and that one looks perfect.

  16. Vogue 7682 is just gorgeous! The jacket is so chic, and would go along with my new resolution to sew and wear clothes that I am in love with, rather than clothes that look like what everyone else is wearing. I have a pretty pale yellow wool that would make up beautifully into a chic suit!
