What can I say? It's Summer and I love tunics and white! And I love QUICK projects! The days are long and beautiful. Who has time to be in the sewing room when you can be getting in that family quality time? Not I! LOL So quick and easy projects are what I'm looking for right now.
Project Details:
Pattern: Burda 7354 - View A
Pattern Sizing: 10-22, I cut the 14.
I've had this pattern for a while and also the fabric. With the sheerness of the fabric, I thought it would make a great top.
I made this right out of the envelope, with no alterations. I know... a rare occurrence.
I love the tunic style, the bandeau neckline and the sleeve tabs. I opted to just add elastic to the waist instead of ties. And the neckline is finishes with binding. When the belt is removed and it's not as blousy, it works great as a swimsuit cover.
Have a great weekend!
This is great! I do love a great tunic, thy're just so comfortable. You've inspired me to sew all the fantastic pieces that I can only long for, and including the basics.
ReplyDeletePerfect for summer...love the white fabric!

ReplyDeleteThis will be great for those hot southern days!
ReplyDeleteLove that fabric. I just made a quick tunic myself - so nice not to have to mess around with fitting!
ReplyDeleteYour cutoff shorts are so cute - the hanging threads are very decoratively draped.
I'm in total agreement with you on this and have decided to put my much loved tailoring techniques to rest until fall/winter sewing. Love the cool white top too.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty tunic.
ReplyDeleteWell Done!
ReplyDeleteThat is so lovely. I do like white in summer too, a lot. And these kinds of tops, so flowy and soft, are my favourites. Very nice!
