 Hi you guys, Lindsay here. Welcome back to my channel Inside the Hymn. You guys saw the Butterick Fall Pattern First Impression Review that I did a few days ago and now we've got simplicity and then following this one will be McCalls. They are rolling these things out really quickly so I'm trying to keep up so that you guys can see the patterns and maybe more importantly see what I think of the patterns. So without further ado let's get started. I'm already on the new patterns page. If you're curious you access that by going to patterns and then simplicity and then new patterns. So let's see what they've got for I guess this is they don't really title it like they do for the McCalls brand but I'm guessing fall early fall late summer something like that. Okay first up we've got this little top with some very interesting sleeve actually some very interesting sleeve details. Let's get this open big so we can see look how cool this one is. Hold on their site is a little hard to get used to navigating. Okay look how fun that is that's really cool. Okay let's get a closer look. I guess we've got a split sleeve with a bow and a ruffle and then a full sleeve with a ruffle this version which is a tie-up sleeve with a bell like an open bell sleeve and then this must be her version you just can't see the ruffle really well. Here are our line drawings doleman sleeve this is really cute and am I alone in thinking that this is fun and different but still very wearable. I'm really digging this a lot here are the girls together cute I love this I love this a lot that's definitely going on my list I just think it's so fun and different but still very flattering and wearable I don't think you'll look like too weird but you'll definitely look you know fashionable and trendy love this one simplicity 8694 is going on the list for sure. Okay next we have a kimono she's got um what is that oh oh okay so it's got like a um I don't know what do you guys want to call that like a extra panel and then this one that buttons in the center with a gathered sleeve this is a cropped one I guess with a waistband and then here's the one she's wearing which I guess is the same as a it just has contrast fabric I'm not big into kimonos to be honest guys like I probably should be because they are so wearable here in the fall and winter like I would be able to wear them a lot um but I just don't find them to be super flattering I guess I don't know maybe they're just too retro for me I'm getting a very big like rock and roll 70s vibe maybe it's her styling too with like the multiple multiple necklaces and the washed jeans um but I don't know I wish again as I always say with simplicity patterns I wish they showed people in some of at least one other view I mean throw me a bone here um or they would have made up one of these that isn't the most obvious like I can pretty much tell what that's going to look like on a body but I don't know what these two look like these could be cool maybe I'll have to wait and see when you guys make them or other people make them what I think um okay next up is a okay so they've been doing a lot of like reworking the vintage patterns and this is one of them this is a calf tan one of the jiffy easy cut easy sew which means that I mean these are the pattern pieces it's literally rectangles a little next cut out and then you can shorten them or lengthen them so pretty straightforward here but are you supposed to wear this out or is it a cover up or what I don't know I don't understand captain's very very well I'm assuming you know it's like a house coat all right then we've got a it looks like a vintage like a reworked vintage dress here with a like high collar or high neckline and a little peter pan collar some interesting gathering for the bust you know bit and glare like usual you also have these pockets I guess or yeah you can do the pockets look at those pattern pieces that's kind of cool again this I'm not a vintage girl either but I imagine if you are this one could be likeable to you where's it from I wonder oh look at the cute back there's like a bow in the back but they aren't really showing that oh they didn't do the bow oh they did but not as dramatic look at those back waist darts I'm telling you I don't like vintage aesthetic because the fit to me isn't very modern like how wide she is up here but they did some really great tailoring back in the day I wish they would bring some of that back I mean all of this shaping like you would think she had darts or in a waist seam but it she doesn't it's literally one whole piece but this shaping is all accomplished because of these darts please bring the darts back okay um oh interesting little shirt dress here okay look how cute this is I love this it's like a regular shirt dress and then it's got this wrap around asymmetrical panel thing that's kind of cool right what do we think of that little sleeve detail here this one's got tie sleeves without the crossover panel and this one's just got regular cuffed sleeves I think this is super cute again it's like a twist on the traditional which if that's their vibe for this collection I am feeling it I am all about it let's see obviously you know that the stripe plays really well with this you know panel um but it could be really great and just a solid shirting too do we get any back photos oh there's one no seams but it does have a yoke so at least that's a step in the right direction look at the line drawings again there's our backs and you guys it's really truly not difficult to add fisheye darts to the back to give yourself a little bit of waist cinching for me it's so important because up here I am like a 14 and on the hip I'm like a 20 22 so you can't really grade between those sizes and whenever you do inevitably the waist is like very very baggy so when I add fisheye darts it allows me to be a little bit more relaxed in the sizing of the waist but still achieve an hourglass shape to the dress I think that the tie does help with that because you can kind of cinch in a little bit let's see you can see it better here so she is getting a little bit of waist definition on the side so that's just why I harp about dart shaping on shift dresses okay mrs knit again with an asymmetrical hem um we've got a very defined waistband this ruching as I've said before is extremely flattering it covers all of your you know if you have a belly or you know issues with your midriff this hides it all which is great I love this little like it's like a flutter sleeve but it's a not as dramatic flutter sleeve which is nice here are our line drawing so we've got yeah asymmetrical hem regular hem long dolman sleeve a flutter dolman sleeve two neck options so lots of variation in between all of these um and then on our backs pretty much all the same except for the skirt and the waistband cute little knit dress I didn't buy a ton of knits when I was in New York because I just don't find myself loving making knit dresses for some reason um I mean I do like the ones that I have made I don't know I don't know why maybe there aren't enough really great knit dress patterns so maybe I should give this one a go all right now we've got another shiftish looking dress that's gonna be cute it's definitely fun is that a good description it's fun okay so this one's giving me like you know prairie vibes with the applique but if you left that off I don't know bubble sleeve maybe not this one's super cute very peasant dress which is okay I'm down for peasant dresses you know 70s vibes same with this one but it has a button placket and again we only get the one like we only get her dressed up in one I kind of like the proportions of it I like the um pier waist like the higher seam it's not sitting at her natural waist it's higher I like the shorter length and the long sleeve and the high neckline like these proportions to me are ringing very cute and sweet which is very much my aesthetic I really love sweet darling I just don't know about all this applique rickrack and trimmings and that's that's not necessarily my jam but so princess seams that's great and in the back I don't know if you noticed there was some darts here so also great shaping um and then I think the skirt is just gathered yeah we can't see the bottom yeah the trims a little much but I think that it could be you found some I don't know you could really work with this and make it maybe cuter than what they did but I don't hate it it actually kind of works together I just wouldn't it's not in my mind like to put pink trim and green rickrack and gold but you could you could definitely hit up the trim section of your fabric store or trim store and and do something really cute with this I think and these like little pin tucks or I don't know what are those called are really cute and different I like this I like the shape of it I like the idea of it eight six eight nine going on the list I think where are we okay here's a Mimi G let's see what she's up to you hmm I know that there are a lot of Mimi G fans out there but this I'm not sure about maybe it's the fabric application I do appreciate she made two different views amen for that this looks really cute in the drawing she's got bust arts and then a center back seam that's it and then a pleated skirt or ruffle or pleated band or a gather or sorry I can't even talk this is a circle skirt this is not pleated or gathered it's like a circle skirt added out to the hem and then we've got a cuffed hem here or this sleeve or this bell I think my mind is just kind of like all over the place after seeing these pictures yeah I'm just not like digging the fabrics I mean that's a really big stiff bow right by your face you know I'm saying I don't know Mimi I don't know I can't tell if I like it I like the drawings okay fabric choice I guess is just pretty critical here yeah okay now we've got a sew chic mrs dress I don't know the sew chic brand oh is that like a a partnership sew chic do they make other patterns yeah sew chic pattern company for simplicity again vintage vibes here very you know 50s with the sweetheart neckline and a shoulder panel here little puppy sleeve the bias trims a good detail and then this little band and let's look at some of the oh look at all these seam lines very cute and then these huge back darts and shoulder darts again they just really paid attention to that stuff back in the day I wish we could take some of it and apply it maybe not all of it but at least some of it yeah she's got a great fitting bodice I mean she looks great it fits spectacularly as it should okay good job sew chic all right now we've got a vintage blouse and dickie okay um that's a very pronounced specific collar dolman sleeve we've got some bust darts and here is our dickie are they gonna excuse me are they gonna show how that is like warm oh here we go so this is what a dickie does it goes under your sweater but it's not actually like an entire button down it just looks like it is so you make this and this and then you wear this underneath sometimes they attach to each other um like a little buttons or snaps or something I don't know if this does or not but I don't know like I'm all four vintage patterns like being remade but is this modern enough I mean I think that I don't know I guess it depends there are some people who love the quintessential vintage and like to look like they've been picked up from another decade and placed in current times but for me if I'm going to do vintage it has to look it still has to look like something you could get in the stores today and I'm not sure that that's that but I can see some people really being able to pull it off so I'm not knocking it I'm just saying it's not for me okay now we've got a one shoulder top oh this is kind of cool all right I can't say I love the like pronounced cost but that's easy enough to change it's like a like you took a min shirt and you put it on sideways where the collar is over here okay clear this one with the bow of course oh and I like the sleeves that are on this too I would look how cool this button version is but of course they don't show us any of that um here are the backs there's literally not a single dart on this guys so it is pretty much a sack here they do have some pictures of her with it untucked so kind of so let me get rid of this so kind of tunic-y like a tunic yeah um it doesn't look terrible I guess the shirting fabric really favors this just kind of like a line without any um without any shaping um because it does just kind of naturally float away from the body which can be flattering um and here she is with a little french tuck this could be cute I could see I could see people pulling this one off and looking really really cute I want to see these these are so much different than these I wish they would make more than one I volunteer simplicity if you want to give me the patterns ahead of time I'll make a version for you okay now we've got just sleeves a set of sleeves that I assume you can attach to any simplicity pattern with a set in sleeve I don't know about that you can't really do that today they vary but okay well let's look at them I don't know this is a really weird pattern cover with all these random arms but there they are if you need some sleep ready this one is really sweet I do like that a lot this one's not terrible these other ones I don't know it could be fun to just get like a basic like shift dress or even fit and flare and like just do a bunch of different sleeves these pictures are cracking me up okay girls cool oh here this is probably easier to tell what's going on well there you go if you need some sleeves you can get simplicity eight six nine five okay now we are looking at some oversized blazers oversized blazers are very trendy this one is adorable I would wear that in a heartbeat maybe not with light wash jeans but it's really cute this just looks like you got it at Goodwill from the 80s but this application is very modern with the printed bodice even like the floral printed bodice so what are the differences here okay we have one with a notched collar one without a notched collar and these two are the same ones in a print and ones in a solid okay they did make two versions so I'm happy about that yeah this is too cool love this yeah she looks like she just rated her husband's closet but this girl looks awesome so fabric application is key I don't know that I would do it in a traditional suiting um but I do love the modern take on it for sure okay now we've got some pull on pants very athleisure is that pretty sure I guess athleisure is still very very on so we've got the racing stripes we've got a wide leg a more tapered leg without racing stripes and then tapered leg with racing stripes right wow look at all those lines I can't barely tell what's going on okay there you go let's see her strutting her style are they gonna show us this jacket because I'm kind of feeling that jacket there you go it's like sweatpants but it all depends on fabric application you could make this out of like black suiting fabric and do like satin black racing stripes or even white or cream satin racing stripes and have like some really sharp looking drawstring pants okay now we've got a skirt not vintage surprisingly I was getting a vintage vibe from it maybe because of the length I don't really do pencil skirts personally because I've never really found one that I really love this little mini version that was really cute and I also love this little asymmetrical hem here but this long length like this I just I don't think it would look flattering on my pear shape but we've got I'm assuming there's another dart underneath this little panel here with the covered buttons different hems and in the back we've got two darts I prefer four darts in the back for a pencil skirt that's again because I'm going from like probably in the waist like a 16 to a 22 so I need more shaping but I did a tutorial gosh a couple years ago about full seat adjustments for skirts so if you're wanting to make a pencil skirt like this or like I guess it's like a slight a line go check that out and you can see how to get them to fit you really well on the back side okay next cute why do I feel like I've seen this one maybe they headed on instagram or something so this is a pattern hacking pattern um let's see what the options are to shorten the sleeve and add a ruffle to shorten the length and add a ruffle and to add a drawstring and some different pockets so those are pretty decent pattern hacks I think um the last time I did a simplicity first impression of the pattern hacking brand it was like the hacks were too basic it was like obviously I can shorten a dress you know obviously I can make a knee-length dress a maxi dress you know that doesn't take I don't need your help with that I can figure that out on my own but these are actually pretty different so that's good so your base pattern is like they're obviously going for like a military look here with the patch and all of these patch pockets but you can get some pretty different looks here adding the ruffle certainly feminizes it um so yeah you can get some good stuff going here she is so pretty okay um let's see it looks like we have an outfit we all think of the base pattern it's all right I guess again with the oversized you can see how much it's falling off her shoulders that's supposed to be yeah I guess so it's a little bit of a drop shoulder um so yeah it could be cute I don't know that it necessarily has to be like military you can definitely leave these things off um these two I guess and you have like a basic like utility jacket but I you know me I love a ruffle so anytime you add a ruffle to anything I'm like oh that could be cute okay we've got some pattern hacking pants let's see the base pattern's really cute so you can make them like I guess calf length or ankle length obviously you can turn them into a track pant how is that oh with buttons up the side maybe that's hard to tell from the drawings a cropped pant with cutouts okay interesting and then a cropped pant with a frayed hem yeah this is button ups button up the side okay well they did get these to fit her really well the base pattern so that says something although she's like a size zero so cute as a gene I just what fabric would you make something like this out of something that doesn't fray like velvet um and like these button up ones what would you use there like some kind of athletic fabric I don't know again I wish they well I guess they want to make the base pattern here but they could have shown us some others at least at least a drawing like a with fabric applied to the drawing you know having a hard time visualizing that one so okay now we've got a Mimi G knit jacket pants and leggings cute this is adorable okay so yeah we've got like a zip up kind of a bomber jacket but not totally it does have the knit waistband and the knit cuffs but this is all really cute I wonder how hard it is to get that all that and then leggings with similar stripes and a little zip detail here cute and then they're supposed to oh the MC hammer pants are back did she not make those these look like the leggings to me John I want to see what these look like maybe she would put them on her blog interesting two-part sleeve yeah you could probably use out some scraps for these pieces if you have like a bunch of french terry or sweatshirt fleece or whatever you can use up a bunch of scraps for these pieces they're not that big oh she did color block of sleeve too oh it's three where's the side oh interesting but the back is all one I don't know if you can tell that or not interesting that's cute it would take some thought but that's really cute I want to see the baggy crotch one okay now we've got a knit leggings tops and belt all right okay weekend wear maybe this one's cute this is just kind of basic but oh it's separate and then leggings I can't tell is D is this D and F combined or does this sewn in to D like is D really just E and F together I don't know that could go a bunch of different ways I can't totally tell if that is going to be fussy or comfortable but here she is oh she's one out on her skateboard in this outfit okay good to know good to know here she is this seems low to me I wish this were up here on really long sleeves is that supposed to be like that yeah what do y'all think I'm not sure about that one all right next up for anything oh which is their athleisure line okay let's see we've got a pullover these are our like henley or half zip pullovers with a bunch of different variations we've got a little pocket here there's some kind of something going on here this one has a pocket on the sleeve and little inset ins this one has a kangaroo pocket and this one has zip here maybe they did do a is that a placket still I can't remember zipper shield zipper shield which is nice that's a good detail so yeah kangaroo pocket inset thing here sleeve pocket little thumb holes which people like if they're like riding a bike or something this one has like princess seams they all have two part sleeves um drawstring and then this has um that little pocket up top what is this is that like you put little water bottles in there like this is um elasticized at the top and it's like two pockets in the back yeah I guess so I guess it's what you put back there I don't know does anybody out there have ready to wear with that on it what goes in there what is it just like a purse like you didn't just put like your keys in your wallet and anything you want just right there and these are not zips these are just like inseam princess seam pockets I'm not really feeling this uh fabric very shiny this one I'm sure that this is one of the ones they've gotten at joanne this looks really cute yeah the zipper shield is a nice detail this is cute I'm sure when it's cooler out I'll start looking for stuff like this um to wear to the gym um now we've got one for men which I'm not going to cover because I don't sew for men but if you're looking to make something for your guy here's some little workout clothes for him and then doll clothes the mommy and me little girls clothes bags um it looks like Madeline has a new panty set you can check out let's see cosplay little kids oh wait what happened here lots of cosplay okay lots of cosplay lots of little mermaid oh and for your doll too cute um well this is a fun slave over and then these are all from the last definitely from the last um so if you want to see my first impression on any of these go to the last um oh no these are new look that's what happened okay we switched over to new look I was like I know these look familiar so these are the new new look patterns I did do a first impression review on them so if you want to see those I will provide a link from right here where you can go check it out but other than that I feel like we did okay with simplicity this time around I really am digging their um early fall late summer collection I really I was liking it a lot more in the beginning and then kind of like tapered off toward the end but some of these like this top and this dress um possibly this one will definitely end up in my pattern stash I really like this one too let me know what you thought in the comments which one was your favorite which one will you definitely be buying and until next time I will see you guys very soon bye
