Regular Feature Behind the Seams

Every issue we present the latest in fabric trends, but how often do you look at those luxurious fabrics and wonder what pattern styles would be suitable for them? Here’s some inspiration for these Martin & Savage fabrics ...

Vogue V8955 – the perfect palazzo pants

Butterick B5652 – make the top or dress

Kwik•Sew K3856 – the perfect dress or swimsuit coverup. If making as a dress the fabric will need to be lined.

Vogue V8877 – a simple style lets the printed fabric speak for itself. McCall’s M6929 – made in any of the prints, this is a great throw-over to a cami.

Vogue V8870 – lined, this is a great one for lunch, or dinner with friends.

Vogue V1379 – the perfect swimsuit coverup, or for lounging around the house. Vogue V8953 – a pretty, feminine addition to the wardrobe.

McCall’s M6960 – a simple style that would look great in either print or plain.
