Hi, all! Back with two easy Simplicity makes: a tank top and a kimono.
Simplicity 1920 is OOP now, but sure has been good to me. I've made everything in this pattern except the scarf. It comes in sizes 10-18 and 20W to 28W. I found copies on Etsy, Amazon and Ebay. The top is very straight forward to make and comes together quickly and easily.
I cut a size 18 and graded out to a 20 at the hip, The fabric is a "silky blend" polyester from JoAnn's. I just love the color. I also used French seams on this top. It's a little lowcut for me, so next time I make it, I'll be raising the neckline. The bias binding was the time hog on this trying to get it just right. It came out the prettiest binding application I've ever done.
.
The kimono jacket is Simplicity 1318--Also OOP but available on Ebay. The pattern envelope includes all sizes from XXS to XXL. I made an XL in View C and it's wonderfully roomy without being too big.
Again, the fabric is a "silky" polyester blend from JoAnn's incorporating the rust color and some black, grey and gold. The front and sleeve bands are done in a black polyester origin unknown.
This, too was an easy sew despite the French seams I used, my choice not a pattern dictate. The only time-consuming part was hand-stitching the front bands, but I didn't want any raw or serged seams showing on this. I plan on wearing it a long time.
The h-low hem covers a multitude of sins--which I find increasingly necessary. LOL. I have a black t-shirt and cami that also wear well with this. Here I'm wearing it with khaki colored slacks. It also goes with my black slacks to dress up a bit, or jeans for a more casual look.
Right now, I'm playing with some lace and quilting the Tonals quilt. I hope to be done with the quilt by July. We'll see.....
Really lovely makes!
