I think you've floated some interesting ideas for broadening it, though.Karinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06551387452771116176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5286753599148728267.post-48202813571298332762012-02-07T22:42:20.467-08:002012-02-07T22:42:20.467-08:00Glad you are enjoying the blog!

Big 4's always going to get more reviews because most PR members are in North America, and quick and easy patterns and knit patterns are always going to get made up more often than more complex and tailored patterns. Not that I'm not guilty of that myself, but it's not really representative of the true "best patterns" that everyone's sewn. <br /><br />(Hi, recently discovered your blog through a link, am really enjoying it.)Laurahttp://chiralcraft.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5286753599148728267.post-41774410443951082282012-02-07T13:43:27.666-08:002012-02-07T13:43:27.666-08:00WOW - It really was the designer showdown with 2 C...WOW - It really was the designer showdown with 2 Cynthia Rowley (Simplicity) patterns,3 DKNY (Vogue) patterns, and one each from Tracey Reese and Rachel Comey (both Vogue)!Cliohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05552253628640209694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5286753599148728267.post-2790556308880503762012-02-07T13:41:14.831-08:002012-02-07T13:41:14.831-08:00I hear you.

I'm not a regular dress wearer myself, so am currently trying to branch out into the more difficult things like pants and shorts! It's so much easier to fit a loose, drape-y dress than a pair of pants! Fabulous to see the entrance of an independent pattern in there - hopefully this foot in the door will indicate the things to come!poppykettlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05089242289854891320noreply@blogger.com
