Finally getting around to sharing my tunics!
Note to self :: take pictures before you wear and wash. (I hate ironing!)
First up, one in a print from Indie by Pat Bravo:
I made this one the standard tunic length suggested in the pattern, but I shortend the seam under the bust by an inch to compensate for my short waist.
Really fast to make since there are no zippers/buttons. Slips right over your head and it’s really comfy.
Topped it off with my hexagon belt!
Another made from a Kaffe woven check fabric in Teal:
It’s not as wonky as it appears. The fabric is fairly thin so it hangs a little funky on the hanger.
This one is my favorite in terms of comfort because the fabric is so so soft.
I made it first and shortened the length instead of the seam under the bust. I like the fit of the other better.
Probably would have helped to make a muslin, but that’s never how I roll! One day I’ll learn (hmm, most likely never, ha).
I also omitted the neck detailing from the original. I like the simple classic neckline. A dress is next on the list!

P.S. Michelle just released her latest pattern, the Idea Pouch.
I don’t even have an Ipad but I snatched that sucker up. She is all kinds of genius, check out the pen pockets!?
This is gonna be my sketch pad case. It’s on sale now for $6.00. Don’t know how long that will last, but get it now if you want one!
