In a week's time it'll be officially autumn, so I was thinking of adding sleeves to this top. I mean, seriously... by the time I am ready to publish this it will be freezing cold. Or so I think. But I am having faith in my beloved Australians because summer is heading their way :)
The story.
This is my first time I am writing a pattern for 2 sizes and for a top no less. Everything I've made for Eva is in size S (XS) and this particular one she is wearing is in size M. I hope I will have the pattern ready to be tested soon and I am keeping my fingers crossed for a minimum of errors. What's been eating me is that I am not sure if I have the measurements right for the M size and that makes my stomach twirl. But we'll find out about it really soon.
A blue bralette is also coming up nicely - and I am not sure how many tries I need to satisfy myself and calm (drown) the fears, but another one is one the way.
I have some interesting posts lined up for next week, so be sure to drop us a visit! Until then, be happy!
This top is gorgeous too and I love the colors. Your daughter looks so pretty and I think sleeves would look really good. Good luck with the sizing and pattern!
ReplyDeleteThank you Julie! I would have loved to have an M size model for this one, but I honestly shouldn't complain. As for the sleeves, I won't add any. I was just being sarcastic with myself...
DeleteGorgeous! I understand those feelings, but everything is going to be fine. Sizing up and down is just one or two cm so I don't think you'll have any problem with that. Looking forward to see that blue bralette too!
ReplyDeleteThank you Alhana. Yes, that is true and I hope the testing goes fine.
DeleteI'm so excited for this top! Cant wait till it's ready to be tested.
DeleteI'm sure you don't need to worry, it looks very good!
ReplyDeleteI can't even create a top, so I admire you already, even without writing that pattern (in 2 sizes!!).
But I wish you good luck and will be visiting next week like I do each week :-)
Enjoy your Sunday,
Sigrid
Thank you on the wonderful support and encouragement Sigrid! I truly appreciate it!
DeleteLove this top so much Maya and I'm sure the medium pattern will be perfect too. How I wish I still had a figure to wear something like this but those days are long gone :D
