Matrix coat patterns

Look kids: Trinity and Neo (or is that Morpheus?)

And no, geekchick, I've not forgotten about the $0.99 sale. Guess where I'll be tomorrow.... ;)

O Happy Day! O Glorious Day!

geekchick - thanks for telling me about the $3.60 Vogue patterns!! That whooshing noise you heard was me flying out to JoAnn's to get the Miyakes I've been drooling over!

I picked them up in all sizes that they offered - most of Miyake's patterns go out of print fairly quickly, and when they do they fetch lovely prices on EBay ($100 +). Call it an investment for the future ;)

Also picked up a couple of "military-style" jacket patterns, and finally got the zoot suit pattern for D.

I also picked up for D. the Butterick priests' cassock pattern, the last they had. It's not his size, but I can probably draft it up once I re-take his measurements and make a sloper. I cannot really sew for him until his weight stabilizes; he is continually losing (a good thing!) so anything I make now won't fit in a couple of months!

The salespeople told me that Simplicity wasn't on sale right now; I do notice in their circular that they will be 6 for $6 next week, so I'll pick up the Matrix patterns then (and the "wizard robes", if they aren't still sold out).
