It's Sew U, by Wendy Mullin, a designer whose aesthetic is not really my own...or at least that's what I wrote in my head before I saw this pattern five seconds ago. Anyway, I do look forward to trying out the pants pattern in the book, and I'll probably do the shirt somewhere along the line, too. The skirt, maybe not. But we'll see. I've picked up some nifty tips from the introdutory sections, so that makes it worthwhile already.
