Pattern Review – Vogue 8530
For any of you wondering about Emma (who is living in Singapore these days) I recently received an email from her including these pics of her with Zac who’s now 9 months …sheeesh time flies! Life in Singas definitely agrees with them don’t you think?
Apparently Emma’s had to sew up a few more cool and summery pieces for the hot days…and nights!!! Here’s a great dress made up in our 100% cotton Eyeball Garden in Vogue 8530 with no changes made except for the length and a self belt added and says that the pattern was ‘great and very simple’. I’ve seen this pattern made up in a jersey knit by Katherine, love that it works so well in wovens too.
Missing you Emma and I’ll be working on getting you some samples soon. We hope you have a glorious 1st Christmas with Zac.

Wow – that dress is perfect!
Very pretty! Looks so comfortable!
WOW, I love it!
I have this fabric in my cupboard from last Summer and I also have the pattern (already made up in a knit similar to Katherine's). I love the way the pattern shows off the fabric, I knew I needed a simple design for the fabric and I love this! I think I might make it up! Thanks Emma, I miss you at Chatswood for your inspiration, you were great!
Thanks Samantha, what a lovely thing to say.
I miss me being at Chatswood too, but Singapore is certainly an adventure!
Hope you and you're little man are well.

Hi Emma,
I'm sure Singapore is an adventure!! Good for you, I hope you enjoy your time there. Zac is a cutie, you must be enjoying motherhood – you look great! I look forward to seeing more photos of your creations (and drawing inspiration from them)!
Thanks for your comment on my blog too…
Wishing you all the best.
