What fun! I love all of the tops you've created and displaying them on the clothesline is such a cool idea! Thanks for a great review & wonderful inspiration!

Wow! I'd say you're all set for summer, for a few years, at that! You've got some very pretty and interesting variations on this pattern. I love the decorative stitching at the neckline that you showed, and of course the beautiful eyelet. But MOST of all, I love your wedding picture. :o)

Those are wonderful! You have a fabulous hot summer day wardrobe from one pattern, perfect.

Wow! I enjoyed reading this review- so many interesting little details (I agree that stripes and plaid are cute on the bias). And I totally love the idea of making all those tops out of remnants. How nice that you can wear something different every day. And thanks for sharing your wedding photo! Your wedding dress was sooo pretty- I assume you sewed that, too? Very nice!

Flying Seamstress said...
WOW!!! And I thought all those remnants and scraps were taking up space for no good reason. :) You have inspired me ~ and many others I'm sure. Lovely summer tops and thrifty sewing...Well done!

You've been busy! You've produced a great selection of summer tops. What a wonderful idea to use fabric from your wedding dress. I love the wedding picture. What a lovely couple.

I love how you took the basic pattern and made your own variations. I hope someday to be as skilled and inventive a sewist as you are!

I love the wedding photo- very pretty and nostalgic. The woven tanks are great inspiration. I feel another pattern purchase looming (sigh). I had to stop and rate your review as it is really well done.

WooHoo! Cool review

OK, I am in love love love with your tank tops. And yes! Wovens are so much cooler than knits! I am totally copying you on this next summer. (I am pregnant this summer or I would jump to Hancock's and get this right now.)

{Wild hand clapping} Wow, I'm so impressed. Really great use of fabric scraps and an incredible review. Very, very helpful. I must get this pattern!

Wonderful array of summer tops! And you look so cute (and ecstatically happy!) in your lovely wedding photo! I love the fact that you customized each one so creatively... and your finishing looks very RTW in a good way.

Great tops. Thanks for the tip on correcting an armhole gap by rotating a dart. I must try that.

dreamdesigner said...
Impressive! I like all your variations, and I'm very impressed how you took care of that gaping armhole! The fit on the blue one is awesome!

What a WONDERFUL string of sewing, with little variations on a theme. I especially enjoyed that you were able to use a piece from your long ago wedding! Thank you for the review, you added enough detail and pix to really understand the pattern as well as fitting issues.
