Introduction to the Mix&Match patterns from Jocole


I think I get asked questions about the Mix&Match Series ALL the time because it's still such a new concept.  
Here's the gist:  you can mix ANY of the patterns together to create endless designs.

Here's how to works ...
Step 1:  pick your bodice  (4 different options)
Step 2: pick your bottom (10 different options)
Step 3: pick your sleeves (10 different options)
(or leave it sleeveless)

yup, did you read that correctly?!?! ... 4 x 10 x 10 = 400 ... you can make four-hundred DIFFERENT dresses and tops using these patterns ... plus add in that they are available from nb-14 *and* xs-xxxl (23 different sizes) ... now *that* is a LOT of options !!!

At first they are a bit confusing ... but once you TRY it you'll love it and never want to stop.  You become the designer and can create something NEW every single time you use them.
