V 8854 French Blue Version
Previously: I made three of these tops, including this one, in 2014 — that’s why this is a “legacy” post — and am still wearing them in 2021! OK, this is the third one of these I’ve made and, yes, … Continue reading

Burda 6765 — Linen Top
This project turned out to be more “blouse” than the woven “tee” I’m always searching for. But I’m really happy with it! Perhaps predictably, I did change things up a fair bit from the pattern.

I AM Pan – Second Version
I’ve previously panned (heh, heh) this pattern in this post, but have attempted another version. It’s I AM Pan, from the French company I AM. The allure of a woven tee was apparently too much to resist. But I’ve changed … Continue reading

A Woven Tee
I’m always dreaming of a woven tee for all occasions. (OK, for most occasions.) On a visit to my favorite fabric store anywhere — Stitch Sew Shop, in Alexandria, Virginia — I spied the pattern which became this little linen … Continue reading

Burda 6579 Pieced Top

Vogue 1486 Crop Top Muslin
Most of the reviews I’ve seen for this pattern are for the skirt. I don’t know; it just seems overdone to me. But I loved the idea of that top! Could it be my dream top — like a t-shirt, … Continue reading

Another Sweatshirt Mash-Up
This one’s a frankenpattern involving a Jalie collar and the tunic body from Vogue 8854, which I’ve previously also mashed-up with the Talvikki top. Just pretend it’s dancing! The angle’s all wrong, but the tunic’s just fine, really!

Teddy Toaster
My second Sew House Seven Toaster I looks as if it had been made out of teddy bear fur — if Teddy were made of upholstery material. I wasn’t sure how that would work, but it’s actually turned out, well, … Continue reading
