guess what ??? I sewed today and finished a top!!!
Yes it is true,,I made the Renfrew top view C and I have to say I love the way this turned out (sorry about the poor pic,messy sewing room) Im just so excited I could not wait to share
here are some of my thoughts in a mini review
The perfect basic tee! The Renfrew Top is a fitted knit top with sleeve and
neckline variations. View A has long sleeves and a scoop neckline. View B has
short sleeves and a deep V neckline. View C has a dramatic cowl neckline and
three-quarter length sleeves. Mix and match any of the sleeves with any of the
neckline options for unlimited possibilities!
Pattern Sizing:
0 to
16, I used a size 2 , this pattern sizing is made for a pear shape but it is
easy to adjust to any body type
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the
pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
yes very much so,, I
made view c
Were the instructions easy to follow?The instuctions are
well written and easy to use, I have the earlier version which has a error in
the step making the cowl neck, there is a copy of the right instuctions on the
sewaholic blog. I for once followed how the instuctions were written, no
problems, on the next version I will be using my own thought, just easier for
me
What did you particularly like or dislike about the
pattern?
After sewing all the reviews here I just had to get the
patttern, It has sat waiting for months to get used and today was the
day!
Fabric Used:
Cotton jesery form my stash, this year is going
to all stash sewing, I got this fabric form fabricland
Pattern alterations
or any design changes you made:
none, traced a size 2 and sewed,
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
oh yes
will be making more, next time I will be making view B with A sleeves, so yes I
would recommed it to others
Conclusion: a wounderfull pattern ,easy
and fast, with lots of options to make it your own
Jan 1st and I have made one garment already all from stash fabric and pattern , great start to 2013!
happy sewing to all
