Next up-Loes Hinses V neck tunic

I have had this pattern for a long time. Since I am participating in Faye Lewis's Month of Tops, I thought this is a perfect time to try this one. I have pin fitted and made FBA and swayback adjustments. I also raised the neckline about 5/8 inch as well. I also shortened the length by 2 inches and adjusted the sleeves by shortening 1.5 inches.

This is the fabric I cut out to make this. I acquired this from EOS in 2007. It was labeled as Chico knit. I thought the colors looked like fall/winter colors. This should go with brown as well as black pants.

  4. That fabric will be perfect for that top. I just purchased my first loes hinse patterns 5110 & 5101 sweater coat and may have to back track for that pattern if they still carry it.
