Readers, what happened?
How could I have missed Valentine's Day this year? I hope you'll forgive me and still celebrate with me -- albeit a bit late -- by playing a round of the sewing blogosphere's favorite pattern-naming game, MPB's exclusive NAME THAT PATTERN!
By now you all know the rules: I post photos of patterns I find online, and you give them names, the funnier the better. Naturally humor is highly subjective -- and thank God for that!
I'm afraid that the only prize I have available is a discounted Valentine's Day Whitman's candy sampler from the clearance bins at my local Rite Aide, but I do believe the candy is still fresh enough to eat. Again, apologies.
With no further delay, let's get started!
Presenting PATTERN #1:
At a loss already? I hope not. Here's PATTERN #2:
But wait -- we've only just begun. A round of applause for PATTERN #3!
Can't be topped? How about PATTERN #4?!
And our big finale, PATTERN #5!
As always, players, we have our BONUS PATTERN for those who simply can't get enough. Presenting PATTERN #6!
Friends, thank you so much for playing this very special belated Valentine's Day edition of NAME THAT PATTERN. As always, you can name as many patterns as you wish, but only those naming ALL the above patterns will be eligible for our deluxe Whitman's Valentine's Day Sampler. I'll be playing, naturally, as well as any other family members I can track down.
Get ready, get set, Name that pattern!
