Again my DH and I were going to a doctor's appointment and I ended up wearing the same outfit but this time the appointment was in the afternoon and only 20 minutes away.
This time I made a 14 for upper chest and shoulders, 16 for bust and hips. I ended up taking an additional 3/8 inch in the bust area but going back to 16 at the hips.
I like the feel of this knit and purchased several years ago from JoAnn's so been in my stash for some time. Unfortunately, though the pictures show a vibrant blue and white stripe, after washing it the blue has faded terribly. It looks like something I wore a lot but this is my second time wearing.
Here are a few photos I took to give you a full view.

I will probably make more later but have several other patterns I am ready to try!
My hand is slowly mending, but I have a tendency to overdo using my right hand, being right-handed. Stitches I hope will come out on Monday of next week! More later!
I am so glad your hand is healing! That is great news! I hope you are able to slowly get back to sewing. I still think your shirt is really nice, though I am sad to hear about the fading.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Vanessa! I hate that this fabric is not holding up well to washing. I will continue to wear it but only when grocery shopping and not going to other stores.
