June 29, 2020

Welcome to the Winter Wear Designs Summertime Blog Tour!!!!!

All week long we've got amazingly talented sewists sharing their summer inspired creations with you. We also have an awesome SALE going on through July 5th. 15 patterns for just $4!!!!

check out all of our summertime sale patterns HERE.

I'll be honest, I used to hate summer clothes...I didn't want to show off parts of my body that I wasn't super comfortable with, I didn't like the fit of RTW shorts and I could never find cute dresses that fit right. Plus I hate being hot, and I double hate being hot and uncomfortable. But then I got challenged in my early blogging days to try some styles I didn't think I could wear - and it was amazing how clothing custom made to fit ME all of a sudden had me falling in love with summer clothing. Plus...tank tops and shorts typically take less yardage, so that's just a bonus win!!!! The Summer Blog has become a staple here at Winter Wear Designs and is probably the biggest contributor to the most worn clothing in my closet....here's a little glimpse of some of my favorites from the past, and then Patricia's blog post to kick us off right!
