(I AM ON THE HUNT FOR SOME DRAGON BALL Z FABRIC. IF ANYONE HAPPENS TO SEE ANY ONLINE WOULD YOU PLEASSSSSSSSSSSSE LET ME KNOW!?!?!?) And no I'm not about to make a dragon ball z dress lol.
-------------------------------------------------
Yesterday I went painting with Erica B. and we had a goooood time. She even got me to try a new red wine lol. I liked it lol. Here are a couple of pics:
and the masterpiece lol...do not be blown away at my painting abilities lol.....as I LAUGH at myself lol. ffffuuunnyyyy lol
and my shot from the hip...I'm seriously loving this challenge!!!
And now a review: lol
OOP Simplicity 4539
Fabric:
Jersey
Pattern Description:
Misses Knit Tops
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
Yes
Were the instructions easy to follow?
I didn't even use the instructions. It was three pieces.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
I love the cowl neck of this. I think it is so flattering on me.
Pattern Alterations or any design changes you made:
None
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
Yes! I think this is a great top to have in your wardrobe and I plan on making a couple more. I highly recommend it if you can get your hands on one. It is OOP.
Conclusion:
Great pattern, easy to put together, fantastic wardrobe builder!
I love how Kayla got a picture of me "adjusting" lol Excuse the wrinkles, I'd been dressed and gone all day.
That's it guys! Hope you have a great day!!!
I had soooooooo much fun! That top is too cute... and I love that graphic print!

I love the pattern of that shirt. But yeh! skinny minny by the time you finish a garment don't you have to alter it down a size?

Painting must have been fun! I've never painted like that but I like to draw with carbon sticks!

Photoshop/photography issue: Unplug the card reader from your system, then reboot. After it's completely rebooted, plug the card reader back into the system and you should get that box again. Make sure you're disconnecting the card reader properly, and at times, you may have to wait on your system to catch up with what you're doing. I have this issue from time to time. I love your outfit. That graphic print is nice!
