Update on new Patterns

3/6/2013

2 Comments

 
The next pattern to be released is the first using new software - Adobe Creative Suite.  I have been learning all the different components, so consequently it has taken a bit longer.  Now that I have the basics under my belt & some layouts setup, future patterns should go faster.  

With the patterns created using the new software, there is a change to the registration marks used to assemble the pattern pieces.  It is all still very easy to do but the symbols are different.  I am working on putting up a page  as reference on how to assemble the pattern sections.  As well will be putting together a page about PDF's in general.

The first BJD pattern almost ready.  It is just in the proofing stage & putting the finishing touches on, so expect to have it available within the next day or so.  I am already eagerly planning the next couple of patterns for BJDs.  I placed a bulk order for miniature eyelets several weeks ago & hope that they arrive soon...thus the first pattern is designed without a closer but slip-on.  It will be easy to sew & put on. 

For those of you waiting for new Christmas Stocking patterns, they are in the works too.  I appreciate all the feedback so far on the designs that you would like to see.  I am drafting up a new design for "Him".  Also in the works is patterning a previously made stocking - the first being the Candy Cane design.

I am so looking forward to the candy cane pattern! The other designs I purchased have turned out beautifully, even though I don't know how to do the fancy beading that you do. I'd like to learn some basic Brazilian embroidery, and have looked at You-tube for beginning stitches. So I hope you'll sell the" White Doves" pattern sometime as well, and include the design for the embellishment.

Thank you Tamara! Agreed, You-tube & the internet in general, are wonderful resources. The candy cane stocking pattern is in progress right now!!! I will definitely look into creating a pattern with the "White Doves"
