Gina [ From Vintage Girl] was my inspiration for this blouse.. I saw the adorable
sailor out fit she make and posted on her blog.It was adorable. As is , all of her
adorable outfits. I searched ebay for her exact pattern and never found it. But
found one that was similar. Gina is always so good to post the pattern and
the pattern # of the patterns she uses.. Thankyou Gina for your inspiration.
Please check out her blog. She is a fantastic seamtress and makes beautiful
clothes for herself.

DeleteHey, cutie! A sailor top...that means you're ready for my neck of the woods! I can just picture you modeling your latest project out on one of the smelly lobster boats! LOL! Wish I could see a close-up of the white material...sounds adorable!
ReplyDeleteI had to laugh...I picked up this same pattern at a flea market sale...with a whole bunch of others for only a $1! You've inspired me to finally dig it out...might do it as a dress if I can find a good material.
Love your binding...you ought to think about doing a tutorial! I'm sure there are readers who would love any little tips you've come up with!
Hope you're having a great day...it is super HOT here today! Garden grew a foot overnight....YAHHHHHH!

DeleteThis is SUPER CUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love this blouse! You did such a wonderful job! Honestly when you can make garments like these, who ever needs the clothing stores. I really love what you did with the braiding on the back and white is so fresh and clean!
ReplyDeleteThankyou Gina.. I really love this top..So super easy to make, and so comfortable. And thankyou for the inspiration.
DeleteThe trimming on the collar is handmade bias tape.. I made it from some red/white stripe fabric scraps that I had..
Its beautiful Judy, there is such much attention and love on this blouse...
ReplyDeleteThankyou Rachel.. SO comfortable and easy to wear.
DeleteThat is gorgeous! I think I'm going to steal the sailor idea for the 'collar' challenge! Hope you don't mind! By the way, my 'lily' didn't come out of a skip but I did rescue it from being lost forever. The pond it was in was being destroyed (how could they?...) so I 'saved' it and it's now rewarded me ... I'm also proud of a honeysuckle I have outside my front door. This came as a cutting from a car park where the gardeners were pruning and trimming a plant that had got out of hand. I used to walk past it every morning and the scent was magnificent ... so I had a go at starting one off and it now has a thick trunk twining around a pole and showers of wonderful flowers ...
ReplyDeleteThankyou Diane.. so proud that you saved the lily..It is so beautiful.. And so special, when you have to wait soooooo long on the bloom. I love honeysuckle too. We have a big vine beside our long drive way, and when it is blooming ,it spells wonderful.
DeleteI will feel honored if you make the sailor collar for your collar challenge.. Can't wait to see it.. Happy sewing my friend.
Judy, I love this blouse, it is so joyful and summery. Truly delightful and you look so pretty with your hair pulled back. The details are yummy. It's really perfect! Love, love, love! Just the right amount of vintage to be fun yet practical. Well done my friend. This one goes on the favorite list for sure!
ReplyDeleteThankyou Cathe,
DeleteI really like this blouse..so cool and comfortable. Simple to make.. Just all around good.[hair pulled back= hot,hot,hot and definitely in need of a hair cut.lol]
I adore everything nautical and I LOVE this blouse! It turned out so well! The red stripe tape is a great accent. I make lots of bias tape - it's so fun to pick the colors I want.
ReplyDeleteThankyou Margo, I love nautical too.. and this pattern was super easy. I have since made another one , just need a photo to post.
DeleteI love making bias tape too. so fun , and making your own, opens up to lots of fun colors.
