    I fell down the rabbit hole and have been imagining my mini capsule wardrobe for a little while. Have a notebook where I jot down ideas for outfit combinations and whatnot. I’m currently in the middle of making a silk shell top which theoretically can be used with jeans for a casual look, pencil skirt for something more office appropriate and a circle skirt for an evening look.

    Whilst I’m not sure I’m organised enough to carry off a complete capsule wardrobe, I like that it’s making me think more about my makes. No more wardrobe orphans!

  2. Tammy says

    May 30, 2017 at 9:31 am

    I can’t wait to get going.

  3. Liza says

    May 30, 2017 at 9:31 am

    I am in desperate need of a summer wardrobe heavy on tops! I have enjoyed this series and have been inspired to sew with a purpose.

  4. Jan says

    May 30, 2017 at 9:29 am

    How fun these will be to make!

  5. Mary Beth Leep says

    May 30, 2017 at 9:28 am

    Have not planned to make a capsule wardrobe at this point. I am retired. However, if I am lucky enough to receive these patterns, I will definitely do so! Thank you for this wonderful give away!

  6. Karen Conner says

    May 30, 2017 at 9:28 am

    I recently retired (!) and a whole closet full of business clothes just isn’t making it anymore. The idea of the capsule wardrobe is soooooo appealing. My skills are pretty rudimentary and very rusty, but challenge is good, right? The sewists here are so generous with time and expertise I can’t help but feel encouraged.

  7. Meredith says

    May 30, 2017 at 9:27 am

    Yes i am planning on sewing a capsule wardrobe

  8. JJ says

    May 30, 2017 at 9:26 am

    I love the idea of a capsule wardrobe! I want to sew a bunch of dresses:)

  9. Paulette says

    May 30, 2017 at 9:24 am

    I’d never considered it, but I’m going on vacation this week and made some dresses for it and realized that could be the start of a mini capsule!

  10. Capricious Kate says

    May 30, 2017 at 9:24 am

    I’ve really enjoyed following this series, and it has given me lots of ideas for creating a capsule wardrobe of my own. Fingers crossed I win these patterns. X

  11. Gale Coffey says

    May 30, 2017 at 9:21 am

    Being on a limited income I would LOVE to sew a mini capsule wardrobe!

  12. Becki says

    May 30, 2017 at 9:19 am

    I’d love to try! I have such a difficult shape to fit, cannot find RTW clothing and am trying to me-made. My construction skills are A-OK but lack some of the alteration skills. Not able to find classes in my area so I’m winging it.

  13. Marsha Golem says

    May 30, 2017 at 9:18 am

    Capsule collections are a brilliant idea. Matching sets of clothes have been around for ages, but to expand the idea to more than 2 pieces is brilliant.

  14. Jini Kai MacAdam says

    May 30, 2017 at 9:17 am

    Have been totally inspired and challenged by your capsule wardrobe articles. Been loving the whole month. Have pulled EVERYTHING out of my closet, and now have sewing with a purpose to do!

    THANK YOU for these articles. They have been more helpful than you can know!

  15. Lynn Henry says

    May 30, 2017 at 9:16 am

    I sew my tops but would love to extend my wardrobe for a trip to New Zealand this winter.

  16. Luan says

    May 30, 2017 at 9:14 am

    Having emptied my wardrobe of ‘don’t fit/don’t like’ I have little left so I’m about to try out the capsule idea!

  17. Lisa says

    May 30, 2017 at 9:14 am

    Reading all this about a capsule wardrobe has got me thinking – this is brilliant! My daughter just graduated from college and will be starting her job soon – we sat down last night and talked about what a capsule wardrobe could be for her work clothes. We’re ready to start sewing! I’d love to have these amazing patterns!

  18. Karen Bartleet says

    May 30, 2017 at 9:14 am

    LOVED all the articles on capsule wardrobe and plan to start on mine in the next month or two. Taking some time to decide on best colour/style options. Thank you for such helpful, thought-provoking articles.

  19. Glenda Smolen says

    May 30, 2017 at 9:13 am

    Yes I would love to sew a mini capsule wardrobe!

  20. Laura K. says

    May 30, 2017 at 9:12 am

    Thanks for the capsule series. I am definitely planning to make one for myself. It is such a great way to use time and fabric effectively and have a great wardrobe! Now, I just need to figure out my style…

  21. Maude says

    May 30, 2017 at 9:09 am

    I already began my wardrobe capsule and would love to have these new pattens! Thanks for the giveway!

  22. Melissa says

    May 30, 2017 at 9:09 am

    I aspire towards building a capsule wardrobe, and pieces like the Jenna Cardi and the Moneta Dress would be a great start!

  23. Francis Paul says

    May 30, 2017 at 9:06 am

    I made clothes for mmyself and my daughters way back and I just made a dress for myself this week ánd I have bought fabric for a t shirt 🙂 So the patters would be very welcome to extend my wardrobe a bit more!

  24. Dana Tougas says

    May 30, 2017 at 9:06 am

    I work from home and have a 3 year old, as I rebuild my wardrobe to something more stylish a capsule wardrobe is a great idea

  25. Autumn F says

    May 30, 2017 at 9:06 am

    I would love to have the chance to try these patterns! I would definitely try sewing the capsule wardrobe. I wouldn’t have an excuse not to if I won! Thanks so much for presenting all the information on the capsule wardrobe!

  26. evans s says

    I mostly sew tops but will try a capsule wardrobe this year

  27. Mariah says

    May 30, 2017 at 9:03 am

    I have made a capsule wardrobe in the past, but I desperately need to update it. So yes, I am going to be doing a capsule wardrobe.

  28. Liz Fergus says

    May 30, 2017 at 9:00 am

    Yes! I am planning a capsule wardrobe. I researched and made a presentation to my ASG sewing group last month on this topic and the ladies were all very interested in the idea. Having these patterns would go a long way in helping me obtain my goal. Thank you for this opportunity,

  29. ChrisK says

    May 30, 2017 at 8:59 am

    I’m in desperate need of a capsule wardrobe that works for a retread college student and some out and about wear. I wear a uniform at my part time job but break out of my jeans and many T-tops is my main goal!

  30. Brigid Johnson says

    May 30, 2017 at 8:57 am

    I would like a capsule wardrobe to travel to Ireland in the fall. This looks like a perfect start!

  31. Maggie Gillan says

    May 30, 2017 at 8:53 am

    I love the idea of mini capsules for each season. I am relatively new to sewing garments so I don’t have a lot of already-made pieces to add to a capsule. These patterns would certainly get the ball rolling!

  32. Accacia says

    May 30, 2017 at 8:52 am

    I want to use “capsule wardrobe” theory as I keep sewing for myself. Ideally it fits into my stash-busting plans and fabric buying fast, too.

  33. Rebecca says

    May 30, 2017 at 8:48 am

    I am sewing a capsule wardrobe with red, black and polka dots and am so inspired by all of your posts this month! I am even doing separates instead of dresses exclusively to make the most out of the capsule 🙂

  34. Beatrice Bomba says

    May 30, 2017 at 8:46 am

    I am embracing both ideas of slow fashion and capsule wardrobes.

  35. Lisa says

    May 30, 2017 at 8:42 am

    I have been taking part in Me Made May which has helped me identify the clothes I like to wear and what gaps in my wardrobe I have.

  36. M says

    May 30, 2017 at 8:40 am

    When I discovered the capsule wardrobe, I realized I’ve been employing the ultimate capsule for years- the uniform method. Khakis and tees. Out of necessity rather than choice, of course. So the idea of a real capsule feels like a natural step into sewing for myself. Yet also a bit extravagant, as I will end up with more options. My little base capsule currently consists of the Wardrobe by Me Wardrobe Builder tee, the Style Arc Barb pant and Seamwork Brooklyn skirt. Thank you, ladies. I’ve really enjoyed capsule month.

  37. Pat Gottshalk says

    May 30, 2017 at 8:38 am

    It has been inspiring to see the beautiful garments created for the “capsule” wardrobes. So far I am a true capsule gal when traveling, have weeded out my closet but there is more to do but I have not commited to the capsule full time. I can imagine 3 or 4 capsules but I think that is not the goal. The patterns are beautiful, I have sewn with the big 4 and look forward to a chance to try the patterns offered.

  38. Trista says

    May 30, 2017 at 8:30 am

    I’m currently adding dresses to my closet. I’d love to win and add this collection! Win or lose, I win because I get to follow a great sewing community!

  39. Megan says

    May 30, 2017 at 8:26 am

    I am working on paring down my current clothes so I can eventually begin sewing pieces for what I call my daily uniform. These are all patterns that I’ve bookmarked!

  40. Patti says

    May 30, 2017 at 8:25 am

    This series has been life changing! I read The Curated Closet and immediately found where my problem is: I sew without thinking how the items will fit into my wardrobe so many become orphans or are totally not my style. I have sewn one tee shirt this month that fits so well into my existing wardrobe that I think I have worn it four times a week (but in different ways with different accessories). I am working on my second item and feeling pure joy because I know it will be the same. Amazing what a difference this makes!!!

  41. Julie Jordan says

    May 30, 2017 at 8:24 am

    I’m purging my closet and stored clothes with a capsule in mind. These patterns look doable with my skills and a little help from some friends. I hate to shop. I should be sewing everything I wear for fit and color choice. Thanks for the great blog posts.

  42. Katrina says

    May 30, 2017 at 8:23 am

    I’m working my way through The Curated Closet, and am almost ready to look for patterns. Can’t wait! This series has been so helpful, thank you x

  43. Laura Taylor says

    Hi

    I am in the process of making a capsule wardrobe. I have already made two shirts, two sweatshirts and some t-shirts. I have the material for a couple of dresses, one pair of jeans and a pair of elasticated trousers. I’m going to be busy!

    I love the curvy sewing collective as all the lovely posts and ideas are helping with my self confidence.

    I’ve already started on my capsule wardrobe. I was hoping to post something in May, but I’ve had to do more pattern adjustments than I expected. I finished drafting a pattern and sewing a muslin for my slouchy tee, and am about to try it on one of the knit fabrics for my capsule wardrobe.

  45. Paloma Parra says

    May 30, 2017 at 8:16 am

    This has been a very inspiring series! I will definitely be sewing some capsule pieces. Great bundle of patterns also.

  46. Sheila says

    May 30, 2017 at 8:16 am

    I love the idea of a mini capsule wardrobe. I have been planning in a whole new light. Winning patterns that fit would be an incredible blessing and help.

  48. Jessica says

    I hope to find enough time to make a capsule wardrobe

  49. Mary Ann Fogleman says

    May 30, 2017 at 8:13 am

    Making a capsule wardrobe is on my horizon. I’ve purchased several patterns to sew knits, now I need to get the courage to dive in!!

  50. Jewel says

    May 30, 2017 at 8:12 am

    I have been inspired by this weeks posts in building a capsule wardrobe for my upcoming trip to Spain- my biggest challenge when packing for travel is putting together a versatile number of pieces because most of my handmade items are stand alone items and don’t always coordinate with other things in my closet!
