This is one of those tried and true (TNT) patterns for me. I had some material left over from a pair of slim pants I made last year (Colette Clover pants). It was more than a yard so I wanted to make something with it and decided on a top. This is the pattern I used:
I believe this is OOP now. I made the sleeveless top.
I have used this pattern for dance costumes years ago when my daughter was in high school. I have used it for quick and easy projects, etc.
The only thing I did differently this time was to use snaps (black) instead of buttons. I’m happy with the results. It did take me a few test runs to remember how to attach the snaps. It’s been a while since I’ve done that, but glad I did.
Now, on to the next project!
Thank you for your response. I guess I had better get to practicing!
Thanks. I just keep trying different patterns with different techniques. The more I sew the better I become. I'd say it took a few months of consistent sewing. And several mistakes in between 😅.
I have this pattern, too but have never made anything with it. Yours is inspiring. Found you on Goodbye, Valentino's blog: so gald I did. You sew wonderfully—how long did it take you to become so proficient? I am returning from a 20 year break!
Thanks!
Thanks!
Thank you!
Thanks!
Cute shirt!
Great little blouse. Fits you quite nicely.
Looks great. I like the idea of using snaps instead of buttons.
Nothing says "summer" like a sleeveless shirt with a collar! Looks great.
