Overwhelmed By Choice

I have spent a couple of hours in my favourite fabric shop (Fancy Silk Store, Birmingham) looking at patterns and fabrics for my six piece wardrobe plan.   I came away dazed - there are so many beautiful fabrics that I'd love to make into garments.   I am glad that the six piece plan has a couple of rules which will  give me some discipline and stop me racing off in all directions:

Firstly the clothes have to fit the category of smart office wear.
Secondly the clothes have to fit into the guidelines suggested by the Stitcher's Guild Sewing Forum, namely a limited palette of colours - a dark neutral, a light neutral and a colour. 

The colours that I want to use are dark blue - I love blues that are so dark they are almost black - and pink/lilac.

Looked through some patterns and picked some out that look like the sort of clothes I will be comfortable in and which look easy to make for a returnee who needs to revise and practice her skills.   At the moment my list comprises of:

Skirt and Trousers from New Look 6057  

Two tops from New Look 6808

Dress from New Look 6567

And a jacket from Vogue 8732
