Pattern Stash Reduction and Next Project

I was going through patterns yesterday and found that several patterns I had planned to sell or donate made the move with me to our new home.  I decided to take advantage of eBays selling options and have posted several (about 27) patterns there.  If interested, you can go to eBay and look for lamona7 to see what I am selling.

I plan to list some more in the next few days.  The patterns include the Big 4, New Look and Indie patterns such as Collette and Loes Hinse.

I washed some fabric I purchase last year at a store in Myrtle Beach. (I failed to take a picture after purchasing last year, so not able to show it at this time.) Currently my idea is to use this woven cotton fabric with Closet Case's Kalle shirt & shirtdress pattern.  I think I have enough of it to made the shirtdress.  I just need to decide on size since I have not sewn anything from this pattern line. If you have made this pattern, please give some feedback on the fit for you and any thing that may need added attention.  I always appreciate comments.


Thanks for stopping by.

    I have a big stash of duplicate and unused patterns that I'd like to sell, so I'm curious about the details of how you're handling this. When I search lamona7 I don't find you and your patterns, either using small case L or upper case I. Suggestions?

      I just saw your message Wendy and I am trying to find an answer. I thought if you did a search for a specific seller using seller name you would get to their site. I am still researching this. I can tell you that once you post pattern for sell, you get a link saying you can post a link on your blog and does not cost anything. However it only links to that particular pattern you posted for sale. I thought it would take buyer to my blog and show all items for sale. Ebay has a promotion going on now that you can post without being charged a insertion fee, so I have been taking advantage of that. I am selling fairly cheap and Ebay suggests a shipping fee and you can use their label printing and get a reduction in postage. I will get back to you once I figure out how to search for a seller. You are using the correct seller name.

    I found out you have to go to Advanced Search. Go all the way down to section that you check to find a specific seller. If you type in lamona7, you will be taken to my items that I am selling.
