Project 2010

One of my favorite blogs to follow was created by a seamstress in New York. Her blog, Gertie's Blog for Better Sewing, is based on creating each of the projects in a vintage sewing book by Vogue. She of course lets us into her world a bit more outside her journey thru the project.

I have learned many techniques that she encounters with each garment.

Sooo... for the year 2010, I have decided to tip my hat to her and create a sewing goal for myself.
I have picked 11 patterns out for the year. I have some projects that I have in the works right now that I would like to finish up before I start this, so I won't start until February.

Before getting into this, there are somethings that need to put out there.
I am not a professional seamstress.
I was taught a bit by my mother in my youth and the rest (not much) was self taught.
I will make mistakes and do things the wrong (or long) way, so tips and suggestions are greatly appreciated.

So with no further ado...

Here my choices for the 11 patterns in no particular order.

What do you think of my choices? I am really excited for the harem pants. I am thinking of doing the longer one in a solid light weight linen or cotton for the spring. I believe this will be my first pattern to tackle.
