Pendrell Love!
The first Pendrell is finished! The fabric was a little fiddly, as all silky drapey fabrics can be, but the pattern is very well drafted and the instructions are very clear. I finished the seams with the serger and I think the next one I will use the 5 thread serger stitch to do the majority of seams.
I can see making this many more times. It sews up quick and the sleeveless version will be very versatile to wear under jackets. I have some aprons to finish up and then it's on to the Mondo dress!

Mary! It's fabulous, I love it! You know I like my bright blues :)
I'm so glad the pattern was easy to work with, that is fantastic to hear!
Have a good evening!
Cute blouse! I love the pouffy sleeves. And, it could easily be lengthened into a dress!
I love how your sleeves puff! I wouldn't have thought they would in such silky fabric. It's lovely!
Great idea Gwen! I'll have to go scan the closet for an appropriate dress fabric!
Mary it's lovely! Can't wait to see what you churn out next. g
It's beautiful! Now I want to make one :)
Gorgeous! I love the bright blue fabric--festive for the season without being obvious in red and green.
It is beautiful! Love the color.
Beautiful! The sleeves are so nice. I plan to make all versions of the Pendrell myself.
Great job!
