Love it!
Beautiful pattern.
Great fit
I made the Charlie shorts this summer. The fit is wonderful. I did change the zipper location from side seam, to a center front jean style placket zipper. It's an easy adjustment.
superb pattern
I am an experienced home sewer & I have used mostly Vogue patterns but the past few years I have turned more to independent designers. This is the best pattern I have ever used. The instructions are detailed enough even for a beginner & the outcome was delightful. I made the wrong size and the blouse was way too big for me; I gave it to a friend who is full busted, has full upper arms and she just loves it. I am going to make it again in a smaller size. It is perfect in linen.
A beautiful pattern collection within reach for a lightly experienced sewist
Never having worked with linen before, I bought this pattern collection because the description indicated detailed instructions. I didn't expect such a beautiful pattern! Frankly, I'd only purchased patterns from the Big 4 (don't laugh, I'm a beginner), so I didn't know what a premium pattern *was*. This pattern collection is wonderful; there are no extraneous "gee-whiz" details, but every detail adds up to a marvelous whole; I feel I've had a little tutorial on Design. I'm spoiled, now, with this pattern collection, the pretty instruction booklet, plus the unexpectedly delicious "signature finish" linen to go with it. 100% worth it. I have my eye on the Riva collection, next!
Recieved today!Srecieved today!
I finally recieved my pattern today. Took a while to get but the quality of the pattern is exceptional.
Still havent recieved !
I still have not recieved my order, and it's been a long time. Sad it's not here yet, doesn't even show shopped. I have ordered 3 patterns and only recieved one! Disappointed
While searching for a pant pattern, I was immediately drawn to the design details of the CHARLIE Pant. The wide-leg, high rise, pleating, and belted waistband produce a flattering silhouette. I pictured it worn with woven leather flats and a simple cotton tee in summer months, then layered with leggings underneath and a cropped sweater in the winter. I picked the medium weight natural linen for its neutral color, which will be easily paired with many tops in my wardrobe.
The CHARLIE pattern collection came to me at the perfect time. I've been looking for a classic blouse pattern with a twist for the summertime, and the Charlie short sleeve blouse fits the bill. The blouse has an effortless dropped shoulder with a loose fitting silhouette on the bodice. The back placket adds just enough detail to elevate its already timeless design. I also chose to make a pair of the long pants. They're high-waisted and straight-legged with some very nice tailoring details, such as front pleats and cuffs. Additionally, the super wide and curved waistband on the pants is perfectly body-hugging.
