McCalls Spring Catalog Preview
McCalls Patterns has released their spring catalog and it looks like there some fun sewing ahead. My favourites from this collection include:
McCalls 6284 - Cute kit tops with neckline and sleeve variations.
McCalls 6278 - I love the angles on this dress. The colour combinations shown in the diagram are great, but I can also see this dress in one colour but with a mix of texture. I prefer the sleeveless version over the short sleeves
McCalls 6280 - Another easy dress with angles,but this time it's asymmetrical and has a more feminine touch. This one has lots of possibilities.
McCalls 6286 - Tapered blouses with raglan sleeves. I'm not to keen on the black and white print, but I really like the short sleeved version. Perhaps in a nice cotton eyelet, or a small retro cotton print. Perfect with a pair of denim capris or a nice summer skirt.
McCalls 6292 - This princess seamed jacket is so cute. It certainly has a retro feel to it; it reminds me of a jacket I sewed during my teen years. This is the third pattern I've chosen that has colour blocking in it; I'm sensing an 1980s flashback coming on....
McCalls 6265 - Flashback to 1970s...Hawaii Five O...The Streets of San Fransisco...don't these fabulous tunics remind you of the seventies.
McCalls 6271 - Isn't this dress the cutest. I don't have any kids to sew for but this dress is so fun I thought I'd share it.
McCalls 6298 - Look at the lovely smiles on these models, and who wouldn't smile when they get to model these critter aprons.
I hope you had fun looking at a preview of the new McCalls patterns, now I'm just waiting for the nearest pattern sale, because I never pay full retail for patterns.

ooooh, I really really like 6292. I don't usually pay as much attention to mccall's, but this is super cute! I'll be waiting for the 99c sale along with you.
