I remembered to bring the finished Vogue 2980 Today's Fit top to my sister, Calliope, this weekend. Doesn't she look smashing in it? I think so.
Since I had actually gone ahead and cut the pattern in the wrong size AND since Vogue had a sale after I realized my mistake, I reordered the pattern for myself rather than deal with enlarging it. It arrived last week along with these two patterns:
Very Easy Vogue Custom Fit (V 8646): I thought this could be a greatsummer dress in a light eyelet or linen.
Vogue Bellville Sassoon (V1162): This is WAY above my skill level at themoment, but it won't always be and I just had to have it .
Anyway, neither of the dresses are slated for sewing at this point, but you can expect to see me in a version of the Vogue Today's Fit top in the near future.
Your sister is so loving her top and yes... she looks smashing.
ReplyDeleteI like the vogue patterns and have done the same thing - purchased a pattern above my skill level, but telling myself it will not always be that way.
Your sister looks great! What a nice gift :))) I love the Vogue wrap dress, and yes, the red Vogue dress is hard to resist!
