I had been looking for just the right pattern for one of the pieces of fabric I got from my fabulous SP13, Shelby, and I decided to go with one of my TNT (tried-n-true) patterns in a slightly different version.
I've made the 3/4 sleeve version with a scoop neck and plain midriff, I've made two 3/4 sleeve versions with the scoop neck and ruched midriff, and now I've made the V-neck version with 3/4 sleeves:
Thanks again, Shelby, for this wonderful fabric! I really love it and I feel so good in this!
I'm still not done with this pattern yet - I want to make the short sleeve scoop neck version (with plain midriff) in a summery fabric for hanging out on weekends. I think the plain midriff version is a lot less bulky and plus, WAY easier and faster to sew. I cut this one out at lunchtime, and sewed it last night while Jim was watching the hockey game!
On the knitting front, I started a new project over the weekend and I've already separated the sleeves! News on this one to come soon...
I love it!!!!!!!!!

That's a nice print! It reminds me those op-art images from some other era. I'm impressed with your ability to sew more than one thing from the same pattern. Back in the day, when I sewed a lot, I could never repeat a pattern. Now, I can never knit the same pattern twice.

I love your patterns and your stuff comes out so nice. I do have a question,but this pattern,did you add the white panel because you changed the collar?

Another cute dress. You have been sewing up some really cute dresses. Love the convertible halter dress.
