My Newest Project and Happy Holidays!

Happy Holidays Everyone!

I hope this long awaited blog post finds everyone happy, healthy, and enjoying family and friends.

I’ve been working on a project but it has been a while in coming to you. Now that Christmas vacation is here I have a little time to sew. I’ll get right to it. Here was the inspiration. I just loved the look of this.

I decided to start with a cream colored t-shirt that I already owned. I just cut it off under the arms and reshaped the neckline.

Then, I had to reset the sleeves to adjust the fit. Because the original shirt was a v-neck, the neckline had to be a little deeper than the picture.

Here it is before I added the brown panel. It still is not totally fit or pressed here. Because I dropped the neckline, the panels will not be the exact same proportion as the picture, but it will give me the same feeling.

I will accessorize and model it in a future post!

Later 🙂
