2013 ESSENTIAL TOPS SEW-A-LONG MODIFICATION...




Just found out that I need to MODIFY the SAL Final Update
TOTAL NUMBER OF COMPLETED TOPS:  100

I made the BIGGEST boo boo!  Alethia of Kassmins Creations emailed to let me know that I completely missed posting her not one, but TWO completed tops!  I checked the lineup pictures THREE times and sure enough, her pictures were not there.   I made such a conscious effort not to leave anyone out, but I did.  This was not intentional.  Alethia I owe you the biggest apology!!!, and hope that you accept.

When I did the last update I found myself wishing I had time to make two more tops.  The two tops were there all the time because I do remember uploading them to my computer, and the pictures are in my Picasa SAL Album - Alethia brought us to a GRAND TOTAL OF 100 TOPS!


Alethia's tops are made from New Look 6808 that she has worked hard at fitting.  Doesn't she look stunning???  She tells the story in her blog post that featured both tops.


Thank you Alethia - believe me, you were an important part of the 2013 Essential Top Sew-A-Long.  Thank you for bringing this oversight to my attention!!!

  2. I am always amazed by your work when you throw a SAL. It has to be a time consuming labor of love. I'm glad Alethia brought the number up to 100, such a satisfying number and she as well as everyone did such a great job! Congrats

  4. Wow! That's quite a number.
    It's unfortunate I wasn't able to get a proper photo of the top I made for my niece :-).

    It would be interesting to know how many of the ladies finished a top a tad too late? Are there any? I know I did!

    Congratulations to all the participants and one more big THANK YOU to you Faye!
