Tier Ranking New Butterick Summer Patterns | Sew Summer Clothes 

Mari, you have me laughing with you as you describe the pattern!😅 Pom Poms and door knobs!😮😮😮😅

I was giggling like you at that last one with the buttons - like who the heck would wear something like that?!!

Thanks, Mari! Have to chuckle at some of your viewpoints on these patterns!

That wa so fun! I pretty much agree with all your ratings, especially that ridonkulous button disaster one. Wth were they thinking? ❤

I think the skirt of B6989 intended to be used as a cover up for the shorts. At one time women never wore shorts in public-even wearing skirts for playing tennis or golf. Also, in the era of the original rereleases Jackie Kennedy & her sister were fashion trendsetters, both very thin women, so many patterns and RTW designs were created for that body style. 😊

Appreciate the flowy styles.

Alice and I had a great time watching your videos. We both decided you are in a very generous mood today - we put the last few vintage patterns in the E category 🤣 Can't wait to see your next video

I like 6696 - that is an interesting take on a sweatshirt, love the sleeve detail.

I had to get that vintage raglan one. I can't resist 1950's 😍

I actually liked the giant polka dots on that top ☺

Who knew that side seam pockets will now be called door knob pockets. 🤣 I ordered a couple of these patterns and once again they are in the boring section. 😮 ❤

The only thing the first pattern had going for it is the sleeve, I probably wouldn't buy it. I can't imagine needing to use a pattern for a tier skirt or the tiered rickrack dress. I do like the cargo pants, and they would fit my life. I would buy 6996, it has nice details, I usually like Palmer\Pleish . patterns. The two A-line tunic tops look like patterns I already own. The tent dress looks like a house dress I had in the late 70s. I don't do vintage because of my age, it just makes me look like I never updated my look ( even if I was too young for it originall).They are cute though. I owned a bright yellow double knit dress in the 60s when I was in Jr. High like the tent dress.

Fun video

I like the skirt in the first pattern.😊 7000 wrap pants and shorts are a Big No for me! My thunder thighs are only meant for my hubby to see!😅😅😅

I actually like 6990. Would look good for a Sunday dress.

B7002: D, for a pear shape. With a belt, maybe a B. It looks like the sleeves could make a pear shape look like a big bubble. Also, the pockets on the hips are a big no.

1st time seeing ur videos & subscribed straight away 😁 it would of been better if u had said the size range hun 🙏 the one I WILL BE BUYING is 6996 love love love ❤️ this top & u could make it into a Cardi if ya want but definitely gonna make this top 😁 thank u for sharing these with us best wishes to u & ur family from the UK 🇬🇧 xx

You do make me crack up 😂. Great review and 6998 is the one for me... now just have to wait about 6 months before it comes to the UK 😅. Thanks for sharing ❤

I am rather taken with 6998 and with 6996. However I would want to look more closely at the construction of the sleeve in 6996 as it looks like it is getting caught and hitching up at the cross over / apex of sleeve cuff.

Love you,

I really made me want to rush out and get the last pattern NOT. You had me laughing.

And the pom poms look like they were put on not quite right adding to the silliness. 6997 is a disaster to me just because I don’t like the length or the way the hem is.

Ok. I must disagree on the very first pattern-7002. I give it an E. I really don’t like those sleeves !! 😜🤗

It's just the endless recycling and repackaging that does nothing new.
