Earlier this week, I showed you my progress on my first Jalie pattern. However, this wasn't the first time I planned to sew a Jalie pattern. Back in the '90s I purchased this pattern; Jalie 926. I've seen some bloggers referring to 1980's and even some 1990's patterns as vintage patterns. I'm wondering at what point does a sewing pattern become a vintage pattern. This one is circa 1992.
I still like this pattern and I'm thinking that I might sew it up in a wind resistant, water repellent technical fabric to use for walking/hiking/biking pants. However, I'm still waiting for the right fabric in the right colour to present itself to me.
Come to think of it, this pattern junkie has several patterns waiting for the right fabric to magically appear. How many of you are still waiting for this magic to happen?
