Friends, now that it's back-to-school season, it's time to put our thinking caps back on and play another round of MPB's exclusive pattern-naming game, NAME THAT PATTERN!
In case you don't know the rules, they're simple: I post photos of patterns I've found online, and you give them names. You don't have to name all the patterns, but if you do, you'll be eligible for some terrific prizes, including a beautiful Magnavox Mediterranean-style color television console!
With no further delay, let's get started.
Here's Pattern #1!
Still with us? Presenting Pattern #2!
But wait -- there's more: Pattern #3!
Not to be outdone, here's Pattern #4!
We're coming to the end, folks: our final entry... Pattern #5!
But wait -- as always, we have our BONUS PATTERN, for those who simply can't get enough.
Presenting Pattern #6!
Friends, I hope you've enjoyed this very special edition of NAME THAT PATTERN. We can now officially move into fall.
As always, I'll be playing and even Michael too (Do you hear that, Michael?).
On your mark, get set, Name That Pattern!

DeleteHot off the press… from McCalls new Colostomy Collection.
ReplyDeleteDon’t spoil those first impressions, put that bag behind you, cleverly concealed in the latest evening gown from the collection. It may only be temporary, but that is no reason to disregard fashion.
And you though color/pattern blocking would never come back. Quilt your way to wardrobe heaven in one of these smart outfits from the Be Wild and Crazy collection.
Be ready for sport or work around the house. Be daring, Be ADVANCEd. Flaunt those arm pits and ankles in our newest ensemble, the SPORK. But work or sport, or just wading through some deep *bleep* don’t be a dork and forget your pearls.
Don’t forget to tune into this new McCall’s pattern, RETURN TO DALLAS. Relive those unforgettable moments. Dream of giving J.R. what he’s got coming.
Vogue has once again captured the essential look of today in the HULK SHIRT DRESS. If you’ve got one of those muscle bound creatures at your house, he can wear it too!
And last but not least.
Be the best dressed lesbian on the block. Blend in with the guys and keep those whistlers, oglers and pinchers at bay. Show ‘em your not easy, with Easy McCall’s I AIN’T NO PRINCESS togs for fun times and pajama parties.
Ouch!! I made bridesmaid dresses from #4 P212 for my wedding.

I love your blog. I'm a non-sewer but love reading everything. The responses to this post have me laughing SO HARD I actually had to stop for a tinkle break so I wouldn't pee my pants. I've got tears in my eyes from laughing! My favorite so far is jetsetsewing.com's #1 "What Kate wishes Pippa had worn". Priceless! Pam from Minnesota
