Pattern and Instructions: The Peggy Bodice
🕑 Added 2022-12-01 14:59:38 +0000 UTCCan you believe it's time to release the final pattern for the Charm Artist Collective?
You're going to love the Peggy Bodice! It is such a classic addition to your mix-and-match wardrobe, and extends the Lamour-series into warm winter wear. You've been requesting this one!
This chic bodice with a high jewel neckline is designed to be paired with any of the Lamour-series bottoms to create an elegant dress or jumpsuit. The cut-on sleeves are a true vintage look, and the underarm gussets will give you a wide range of movement–while also increasing your sewing skills.
And it's not just for winter! With three sleeve lengths and myriad fabric choices, this will become a four-season staple for you to wear year round. (I personally can't wait to sew this in a floral cotton border print with a full gathered skirt and short sleeves!)
Suzie and I got cozy with our wool Peggy dresses. I've used the Charm Circle Skirt and self-fabric belt in an embroidered flannel from our stash. (Here's a tutorial on how to make your own fabric-covered belt).
Suzie is divine in a boiled wool Peggy-Wanda dress, for a sleek and elegant look. This bodice is perfect for showing off your vintage brooch collection!
For all the fabric and supplies, check out the written instructions at the bottom of this post for links and recommendations.
You'll also find the tiled file (for printing at home on A4 or letter size sheets and taping together) and the A0 file (for printing at a copy shop like pdfplotting.com). Please note that we now have two size blocks, so make sure to download the correct files for the size you're making. If you have any questions about the new range, don't forget to read our blog post with all the details!
xoxo,
Gertie
