I have spent the last while filling my work basket with the patterns I have been longing to cut for ages!

I have cut 1 green gaberdine trench coat, a 1960s yellow A-line silk mini dress, 2 1940s utility blouses (sand coloured silk and robin egg blue cotton twill), 1 pair of 1940s factory overalls, 1 yellow silk peplum blouse, 1 Japanese printed cotton peplum blouse, 1 1940s inspired khaki overalls with blue whitewall buttons.

This week I want to chop out my 1950s green wool coat dress, I am working on draping a Vionnet as an exercise and I have a pattern for a balloon sleeve blouse I want to cut. I also want to cut a repeat of a pair of cigarette trousers I cut in a dark red/black shot linen.
