Inspiration...Embroidered Top

 This top is so springy:

This is the Cotton Embroidered Yoke Top from Bodin.  Price tag: $110.00.  Details:  relaxed shape that falls between the hip and the waist, embroidered yoke front/back, embroidered front bodice, notch neckline, cotton, machine washable.

This is a sweet little top.  I would use this pattern to kinda duplicate the look:

This is the Kit Blouse pdf pattern from Seamwork.  It is not actually like the inspiration photo but I think it would work.  You could still put plenty of embroidery around the neckline and the front bodice.

I did find a couple of options on Amazon that might be wonderful for this top.  Amazon is a good option for me as then I do not need to pay for shipping.

Hope you are inspired to create something wonderful.

Happy Stitching!

More Fabric Coming....

 There will be another thud on the porch soon.  Fabric purchasing is an addiction.  Hopefully, it will get used quickly.  Here is my latest round of purchases:

This is a marble look cotton/polyester shirting.  Purchased: 2 yards.  Care:  Machine wash gentle cycle.  Plans:  Seamwork Hansie

This is a blue/black/white 100% cotton sateen shirting.  Purchased: 1 3/4 yards. Care: Machine Wash.  Plans:  Itch to Stitch Vikos Top.

This is white/royal blue 100% cotton floral poplin shirting.  Purchased: 3 yards.  Care: machine wash.  Plans:  top with matching skirt no specific pattern.

I really need to quit shopping for fabric and start sewing up all this fabric that I am purchasing.  Wish me luck.

Fabric for Brisas Pullover Muslin...

 I finally located a fabric for the muslin of the Itch to Stitch Brisas Pullover.  Here is the fabric:

It is a dark navy or balck and off white sweater knit.  I think it will work nicely for a muslin and if I'm lucky it will be wearable.  

Here is the pullover line drawing again:

Hopefully, it will not be an issue matching the stripes. I have not printed to pattern yet. So, I do not actually know how curvy those princess seams are.  

Sadly, I have not really even started much of my summer sewing and I really need to get that done before I start on fall/winter.   I will be ready though.

Inspiration...Midi Sleeveless Dress

 The hot days of summer of coming.  My favorite clothing for hot summer days is a dress.  Here is a perfect one:

This is the Delphine Midi Sleeveless Dress from Boden.  Price tag: $99.00.  Details:  100% cotton, machine washable, fit & flare styling, side pockets, designed to fall to mid-calf, sleeveless, notched neckline, drawstring waist. 

There are options with this dress  - three prints and three solids.  The sapphire blue is perfect.  

Here is a pattern line drawing that I think will work well:

 This is the Bobby Dress pdf pattern from Seamwork. The neckline is a little bit different and the waistline but I think it gives the same feel.  If you are a Seamwork member, there is a bonus available as well that adds a flutter sleeve.

Hope you are inspired to create something wonderful.

Happy Stitching!
