Moreish March been and gone.

Hello, I know most people say it but I can't believe how time goes. I haven't blogged for nearly a month. It is such a pain how work gets in the way of doing the things I love but I guess I need to be able to pay for my addictions.
My garment of the month in March was going to be T-Shirts, within the theme of moreish March. Previously I made New Look 6323 here and really liked how it fitted. So I decided I would make a short sleeve version for summer.

I especially love the back in this T-Shirt.

The fabric is a lovely stretch from Tessuti. I bought the fabric at the end of last year. It's beautiful to wear. I have worn this many times . It is like wearing times pj's to work. It is very pretty fabric, so soft to touch and easy to sew.

My idea for Moreish March was to make a pile of T shirts that will work for work and play but alas
work has been difficult  and all consuming. I have had some very difficult students and classes and this makes me exhausted, so sewing and blogging have definitely taken a back seat.. Luckily though I now have a 2 week break and not too much school work to do these holidays.
Here in Sydney the weather is still really warm so these holidays I am going to try and catch up with my sewing and T-shirts will definitely be a priority.
 Also I have gone back to painting this term, which I must admit, has been keeping me sane.

                                         Happy Sewing !

Simple top

I am a bit behind in my blogging so this week I hope to catch up.

I made this top a little while ago when the weather was still a bit cooler.


The pattern is  New Look  6323. I made the XL with no pattern alterations. I love the back on this pattern.

      
       It's a bit  hard to see but the pattern has gathers across the back.

The fabric is from my stash. I think I bought it from Spotlight but I have no idea when. It is a polyester jersey. It made up beautifully. It is very comfortable to wear.

                        I really like this pattern I love how it falls. I will be making this again possibly shortening the back so that there is not such a hi low effect. A good basic top.

Happy Sewing!
