I think I have found a new fav. I really love this Vogue top. It was soooo easy and is very easy to wear. I had this fabric in my stash for about three years. Yes I am really sewing from my stash. It feels really good! I made version C which has a hidden button placket which I haven't done for a while. The fabric is a slate gray polyester. I did Hong Kong finishes on the top but I chose to serge the side seams on the pants. The pants are a very and I mean very skinny leg. I did add about one inch to the overall width. Next time I might add more. I bound the waistband inside with yellow bemberg just for fun. I did not make the belt loops as long as indicated because I didn't have a belt that wide. All in all a very fun project!
husband was trying to make me laugh.
I should have cropped these pictures so you don't see so much of the room. SORRY!
I just saw this over at PatternReview. You know, sometimes I shy away from older, out of print patterns when decidign what to sew, but I can see that I shouldn't. This is quite classic and looks very nice on you.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'll admit it. I like seeing glimpses into people's lives when they don't crop their photos :-)
This is a sleek and sophisticated outfit. I love it.
ReplyDeleteNice outfit. Love the gray. Love.
