The lure of foreign pattern magazines finally got the best of me. After a feeling of disappointment with the latest Ottobre Woman (I just thought the tops and dresses had way too much ease for my taste and might make me look and feel a bit on the frumpy side), I decided to check out what was available in other languages. That’s when I stumbled across the spring 2010 issue of Female (from Japan) – adorable! This issue seemed to have a bit of everything from funky pants to sweet tunics and in sizes that both Taylor and I should be able to wear. I’m crossing my fingers that it will arrive this week…. at the very least I would love some eye candy to help me plan my spring sewing! Anyone else seen any good pattern magazines lately?

I hear you on Ottobre. I”m a total pattern magazine addict but I’ve never, ever seen anything to get excited about in an Ottobre Woman. They’re just so frumpy and ho-hum.
I’m always too chicken to try a foreign language magazine. I have enough trouble following directions in my native English sometimes!

is really awesome.
That looks cool, where did you get it? Can you see the designs online?
