This was fun! My top 5: 1 - Cashmerette Upton dress and skirt expansion pack. So many options! 2 - Love Notions Arlington sweaters and dress. Super cute and cozy. 3 - S9272 coordinate set (shell top, cardigan and pants) Those pants can be everything, from loungewear to PJs to work pants in ponte. 4 - Love Notions Aria button up shirt and dress. You can take it from classy blouse to everyday shirt to shacket. 5 - Itch to stitch Taroko skirt. Fun to wear, and in denim it can take the place of jeans. Honorable mentions: Cashmerette Concord tee and Love Notions Rhapsody blouse and dress. 5 is not enough! 😊
Omg so cute! I love all your picks and thanks for including my photos for the Jamison pattern! Here’s my picks! 1. Dover Dress by StitchWitch Patterns 2. Jamison Skirt by YOU hehehe 3. McCall Stitch’n’Save Culottes M4396 (Vintage) 4. Hollyhock Romper by Studio Sadie 5. Sadie Slip Dress by Tessuti Fabrics
Love the patterns you picked… got me thinking lol… but my 5 would have to be 1- The Ogden Cami 2- S9388 3- 8839 4- the Sicily slip dress 5- V9253 I can hack them all and survive😂😂😂
1 - The Core tshirt free pattern. I've made it sooo many times, it's very hackable. And free! 2 - The tunic pattern from the Great British Sewing Bee. Its a woven tank that you could also size down and make in a more structured knit. And it's free too. 3 - The Clyde pants, cause those pockets! I've made it in everything from quilting cotton to corduroy. 4 - The kimono tee (renamed now) from Maria Denmark, another free pattern. Its my go to summer knit top, easy to squeeze out of that knit remnant. 5 - The capri pants from the Great British Sewing Bee. Pattern is free, directions are in the book from that season but they are such a basic pant you don't really need directions if you are an advanced beginner who has made pants. I make them with a side zip so i can curve the back seam. They are my summer go to pants but could easily be hacked to be longer and made out of a stretch denim or other bottom weight fabric.
I've heard so many good things about the Core T-Shirt pattern. I have it downloaded and all - just need to make it up, I have the feeling I will also be a fan. The cut is so good. I didn't know the sewing bee had patterns - I will be looking into that. We definitely agree on the Clyde Pants - I forgot to shout out those pockets!
Omg, first off, I’d cry… 1. Ilford Jacket because it can also be a shirtdress and a shirt. 2. Pietra Pants, because shorts, cropped, and full length with tapered or wide leg. 3. 100 Acts of Sewing Shirt No 1 because I have made it in knit and woven many times. 4. Zadie Jumpsuit. 5. Cashmerette Indigo Orchid panty. I’m covered!
@@blufaerie 😆 definitely agree with the crying part! The Ilford is one that I’ve heard mentioned at lot and the 100 acts of sewing is a new to me brand but I’m definitely intrigued at being able to sew it with knits and wovens 🤔
We're recently retired and I'm downsizing my pattern collection to prep for a move. I am getting rid of structured, office type clothes as I find I'm living in casual knit clothing most of the time. My three favorite patterns are all knit dresses because they are so cool and comfortable in the summer but still look nice to go somewhere. They can be made sleeveless for summer or long sleeves for winter.
@@jennifermaddock4382 I am a new convert to the realm of knits but I am seriously enjoying the ease and versatility of the. So, I can definitely see how all three of your favorites would be in the knits category 💛

@blufaerie does the Zadie jumpsuit sew up easy? I’ve heard a lot about it.
@ it really does!
Glad to see you back on RUclips!! I love how you get me thinking of versatility.
Happy to be back!! That makes me so happy to hear because versatility is definitely a priority to me these days!
lol such a fun idea! liked seeing your pattern picks
Thanks! I'm happy you enjoyed it. Now, let's hope it never comes to this 😆
❤ I love the Jamison Skirt!
😢 I didn't have a way to send you pictures of the finished product.
Oh that’s okay! I’m so happy to hear you love it & photos were a bonus, I got the feedback which was the most important part 💛
