Remember meeting French pattern house Deer & Doe
in issue 40? The dynamic duo is back with its autumn/
winter collection of patterns, including plenty to help
you build your handmade capsule wardrobe. We
especially love the high-waisted, midi-length Azara
skirt. Subtly fl ared, it’s a real essential for day and
eveningwear and you can choose from an invisible
zipper or button-front fastening. Also aimed at the
more intermediate sewist is the Bleuet shirtdress,
which is an update on a Deer & Doe classic, with an
even better fi t and a new sleeveless variation. Take
a look at the full range for everything from tailored
jackets to suede shorts!fi nds getting us sewing this month
