NAME THAT PATTERN -- MPB Day Eve Edition!



Friends, tonight is MPB Day eve, which means I have only twelve hours to apply my hydrating facial masque and I may need all twelve.

The stockings are hung, the presents are wrapped, it's the perfect time to play another round of the sewing blogosphere's favorite pattern-naming game, MPB's exclusive Name That Pattern!

As always, the rules are simple: I post photos of patterns I find online, and you give them clever names.  We have some incredible prizes in store, including a three-day, two-night, all-expenses-paid vacation to sunny Acapulco with Republican frontrunner Donald Trump!

With no further delay, let's start our game.

Presenting Pattern #1!



Not quite your style?  Maybe you'll prefer something along the lines of Pattern #2!



Feeling peckish?  Enjoy a juicy burger courtesy of Pattern #3!



Let's not forget the young and the young at heart.  Here's Pattern #4!



As always, we have something for the guys -- last but not least, Pattern #5!



But wait -- there's more: our BONUS PATTERN for you overachievers.  Put your hands together for Pattern #6!



Friends, I hope you've enjoyed playing our MPB Day Eve edition of Name that Pattern.  As always, I'll be playing too, along with as many family members as I can coerce.

If you're attending MPB Day tomorrow, I'll see you soon.  If you can't be with us, tune in for real-time updates on Instagram (videos too) and of course, look out for my MPB Day wrap-up early next week.

Is everybody ready?

On your marks, get set, Name That Pattern!!!

    Wow, this takes me back. I worked for McCall Patterns years ago doing graphics and the counter catalogue. I even did the McCall logo. Ah, memories.
