Peasant Style

Miss K and I are D-O-N-E with our revised version of the peasant top. Miss K chose a summery blue and white polka dot and a solid red for hers. I found a cute cherry print and red and white check for mine. (All fabrics were from JoAnn's - and on sale!). We decided to add a band at the bottom to make these more of a tunic than a blouse.

I am so proud of Miss K’s sewing skills! She is in love with Mr. Janome, too. He just swoons anyone who sews on him. Prrrr…….

A sweet little sleeve and gathered elastic edges add to the cuteness of these shirts. Kind of Bohemian meets Country!

Little cherries remind me of summer time, picnics in the park and fruit stands.

I found this vintage pattern on ETSY. There were so many to choose from, so I bought two in different styles. Just a little clue when buying vintage patterns: women were smaller back then, so the size “16” of the 60’s is now a 10-12. I have plans to make more summer tops. It is so much fun to have a blouse that is a one-of-a-kind and made in sweet summer prints. They are really fun and took me back to the days that I made them in sewing classes at school. Easy, peasy, lemon squeezy!

Thank you, Miss K, for sharing your day with me!!!
