On the to do pile



Some of the patterns in my to do pile are these from Hot Patterns  ...

I have not sewn with any of this make of pattern before but I really liked the back of the blouse back t, something a little different to your regular t-shirt.  I saw the sew along for this pattern and as there was a download option available (removing the need for postage)  I decided to give it a go. The pattern was purchased directly from HP and the link to the sew along is here http://www.hotpatterns.com/sew-a-long-fast-fabulous-blouse-back-t/

The pattern has been printed, taped together and cut out and I have found some pink stretch mystery fabric in the stash to make a muslin from. As I wash and dry all fabric as it enters the stash it was a matter of getting it out and it was ready to go.  The next installment of the sew along will be next week and as my fabric has been cut out as soon as I find some thread and get the machine out I will be ready to go.

The other two patterns are free downloads via http://www.fabric.com. I do want to try the scarf neck t and will use some of the fabric just ordered for that, but will need to see if there is anything in the stash suitable for the Gypsophelia top.

We are almost at the end of Autumn and heading into winter so there is no hurry for Summer Tops, and I should be thinking about a few warm items for Winter, but it is still around 28c at the moment so they could be worn now.
