Another designer I recently was
given the opportunity to test for was Veronica of SewVery..
The woman behind SewVery patterns and the SewVery Blog.
She is just so sweet and a talented sewist.
You should really check out her recent finish of Radiant home studio's retro rucksack. I love the colors Veronica used!
I actually won this pattern a while back and it is still hanging out it my to-do pile:)
Any-who back to the Sunny Dress and Top pattern review.
This pattern includes a cute tie back and two neck options and two lengths.
One neck option is your basic rounded neckline and the other includes a ruffled neck.
Your two lengths available in this pattern is a regular top and a dress length.
For my first run testing of this pattern I sewed up the size 8 for my Niece using view B (no ruffle) in a dress. The dress sewed up so very quick and you could easily sew up 3 or 4 assembly style for school in an afternoon.
This dress fits her perfectly; both in size and style. I used some Mr Men fabric from my stash.
I had justenough fabric for this top and sadly have no more.
My Niece loved this so much I knew I had to sew her up another one. In true me fashion I used another irreplaceable fabric. I got this fabric in an estate sale recently and I just love it so much. I decided that I should stop hoarding these types of fabrics and just make something that can be loved or worn.
On this version I opted to lengthen the top to a tunic length (I went down to the length of a size 5 dress to make a size 8 tunic). I also used some estate sale fabric for the yellow mini polka dot bib and scraps to make a turned tube a ruffle down the center of the bib. Then accented that with some white rick-rack
I had laying around and a few buttons.
I really hope to see this on her in the fall with some skinny's, boots and a long sleeved shirt under it!
On adorb overload yet??
