I'm glad you were able to "tame" the HP pattern. i have had some disasters with them, but you did great. Really nice, thanks for the review. 1/20/08 1:18 PM
cindy-lou said... Heatherrique, you've given me *yet another* pattern to 'need'! You're such an enabler... love your print blouse! 1/20/08 1:24 PM
michellep74 said... Cute blouse! I'm planning/hoping to start on this one if/when I ever finish the jacket that I'm working on. I actually emailed Trudy from HP to ask about sizing, and she told me that this particular pattern has a lot of ease, so I'll be starting one size down from where my measurements indicate for this one. 1/20/08 2:02 PM
fuzzygalore said... Wow, you've really got something to wake up that next topology course :-). You did a good job matching those links too, it wouldn't look as good otherwise. Looks good on you, and I'm as ever envious of those prints. You really shouldn't tell us where you get them from :-). 1/20/08 3:35 PM
EveS said... Cuuuute! I have admired that Gorgeous Things fabric for quite some time, now. Great job matching it up! And as usual, I just love Heather to bits. She makes me smile! :) 1/20/08 10:02 PM

nicegirl said... Great use of that print! I like how you made the links on the tie perpendicular to the links of the body pieces. 1/22/08 1:33 PM
Annette1 said... Up, up and away! Your blouse turned out beautifully. I hadn't really noticed this pattern until you poitned it out to me here. So THANKS A LOT. :o) What's one more to add to the stash? I'm always drawn to the Hot Patterns, but have yet to make one. 1/26/08 6:56 PM

Aunt Gail said... What an interesting fabric choice. Thank you especially for the info on Hot Patterns. I keep thinking I am going to order one - and then my local JoAnns has another $1.99 sale. This week I bought 5 new Butterick patterns, so you see my problem. LOL.
Thank you for your dedication to this site. What an incredible amount of sewing you do. We are lucky you so generously share with us. It really helps someone like me, who after making her wedding dress and a few other outfits, stopped sewing for many years. You are an inspiration. 6/14/08 9:38 PM
