...LETS MAKE A FEW SPRING TOPS
TO MAKE OUR WARDROBES POP!
Everybody knows I love making TOPS! They are:
- such an easy way to add some excitement and color to our existing wardrobes
- quick and easy to make (most times)
- they are a good way to wake up sleepy sewing motivation
It’s been four years since my last
Top Sew-a-Long and I’ve missed hosting this annual feature on the blog. So today I'm announcing my:
The Sew-A-Longs were so much fun in the past! I’m still wearing tops I made back then, but find that I need to add fresh new ones for spring and summer.
"2017 TOPS THAT POP
SEW-A-LONG"
The Sew-A-Longs were so much fun in the past! I’m still wearing tops I made back then, but find that I need to add fresh new ones for spring and summer.

Thank yes for joining us Lynda!
DeleteI"m going to try to join in, but with my daughter's wedding coming up and the tiny preemie my other daughter just delivered, I don't know how much time I have. You know I'll participate if I can. Otherwise, I'll just stare at everyone else's creations, and appreciate all their work. I hope you're having a nice warm afternoon, Faye!
ReplyDeleteA preemie and a wedding oh my goodness I do understand Marjie! You've got a lot to attend to. I'll just add your name just in case, otherwise I'm happy if you just peek in. Thinks for always supporting Faye's Adventures!
DeleteI'm in. I was considering cutting out a tunic today. Have already pressed my pattern--I have three other items sitting on the cutting table for sewing. Perfect timing. Looking forward to seeing the finished tops.
ReplyDeleteAdding you in now. So glad you are on board MV! Do you have a blog, FB or Instagram that I can link back to you?
