The Monthly Stitch March Challenge: Miss Bossy!

In real life, I am the epitome of Miss Bossy--so much so that a friend once sent me a photo of a Little Miss Bossy book with the caption, "I found your biography."  But the flip side of that coin is that, when it comes to hobbies, I am sometimes paralyzed by indecision. Maybe that's why I have such a huge stash of patterns and fabric (yes, even after last week's purge).

I have "plans" for much of the goodies in my stash--in fact, there is a spreadsheet in my computer associating most of my fabrics with either a pattern or, at the least, a general style. But I decided to let go of the reigns a little and jump into The Monthly Stitch's new challenge for March--the Miss Bossy Challenge!  I have selected 3 of the orphans from the back of my pattern drawer--all things I would love to make "someday," and you, my lovely readers, have control.  I will absolutely make one of these garments in March.

Please use the comments to vote for your favorite. As I mentioned, I have a meticulous catalog of fabrics on hand, but I would love to see your recommendations for material as well.

Palette Challenge Look 1: Decades of Style Button Dress

I've finished my first garment in the Fall Palette Challenge!  After some stumbling blocks and subsequent workarounds (some found here), the Button Dress from Decades of Style sewed up relatively quickly and without much drama.

Colette Patterns Fall Wardrobe Challenge

So I've once again signed myself up for the sewalong at Colette Patterns.  Last spring, I attempted the spring wardrobe challenge and only managed to get through one dress (though I have worn that one dress dozens of times since--it's the Colette that can be seen here on my PatternReview page).  This time, I'm setting my sights a little bit higher.
