Lots less time using the seam ripper!Anne Buterahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04090778223286237879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3042521780804023798.post-90298620845769186932015-04-15T17:09:01.984-05:002015-04-15T17:09:01.984-05:00Thank you, Simone!

I'm also thinking about maybe doing angled pockets.<br /><br />Oh, and I love artists' smocks! Have a few on my sewing board on Pinterest. Well, smocks/aprons. Maybe I'll need to sew something like that next.Anne Buterahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04090778223286237879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3042521780804023798.post-71806163959364040612015-04-15T17:07:13.833-05:002015-04-15T17:07:13.833-05:00How frustrating!

I can live with that.<br /><br />Your Japanese asymmetric top sounds like fun. I really like all the Japanese tops and dresses I've seen floating around on the internet and in those Japanese sewing books.<br /><br />Hope you get your machine working soon!Anne Buterahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04090778223286237879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3042521780804023798.post-74345546271980169762015-04-15T17:05:04.892-05:002015-04-15T17:05:04.892-05:00Thanks so much, Aga! :)

The green one is my style definitely! I don't think you could have enough of either of these tunics. Why don't you make the green one again but with rectangle patch pockets or have a look at artists smocks for inspiration? :-)Simonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02766240849932971541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3042521780804023798.post-8544423082578280002015-04-14T08:51:19.964-05:002015-04-14T08:51:19.964-05:00Oh these are beautiful!

I'm aiming for a Japanese asymmetric top (drape drape 2). Your tunic tops are so "me", so I might try one of these at some point too!!! xxx Fruitful Fusionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04242283924268422324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3042521780804023798.post-36836284808954820602015-04-14T02:39:27.134-05:002015-04-14T02:39:27.134-05:00Anne, they are gorgeous!!!!
