sewsue said... lovely collection of shirts! Thanks for the idea of making tie to hold the sleeve up when rolled, very nice touch. 6/20/04 8:46 PM
Mini said... This looks like a wonderful basic hot weather shirt. I have made the men's version many times, but hadn't thought of trying this one until I saw your pics. I like all your fabric choices, esp. the lemons. 6/20/04 10:57 PM
PVA said... What great shirts! I love all of them! Thanks for the review -- I've probably got to have this pattern! 6/20/04 11:48 PM
CatherineG said... I've been hoping for a review on this one. I have made the men's version with great success. Now I need to make one for myself. 6/21/04 7:32 AM
AnneM said... Hmm, this might be fun to get for the machine instructions! Great lemon top; too cute. 6/21/04 7:38 AM

SouthernStitch said... Great shirts Nikki. These are exactly what I need to be sewing, I just never seem to get to it. I love your fabrics - the lemons are very timely with yellow being so in style right now. 6/21/04 1:11 PM
Lou. said... Love the car fabric Nikki, and can't believe you had the patience to sew one after the other! They look great. 6/21/04 6:15 PM
JeanetteE said... Love your shirts Nikki. I got a chuckle (or was it a snort?) when I read that particular rolled sleeve technique was back in fashion. I have a few in my closet from the 80's (or is the 70's) that I held onto. Glad to know that I can wear them again! 6/21/04 7:06 PM
Debbie Cook said... Great shirts!! I really need to make some too. I love how you "time" your sewing -- 2.5 CDs. LOL! 6/21/04 8:59 PM
Nikki said... Thanks everyone! I have to confess that I bought the lemon fabric (which IKEA was discontinuing) for my kitchen curtains, and had a bit left over. My shirt matches both the curtains and the coordinating oven mitts! 6/21/04 10:01 PM
