Fabricville was having a sale a couple of days ago for “elite club” members (I’ve been one for years since I often drop into the shop for fabric, notions,…). The poly/viscose fabric was half-price so I looked at the other bolts they had. I chose three more lengths to make tops – here is the second one completed. I liked the bright colours.
Second Flared Tunic
I have the other two lengths cut and ready to stitch up. I am aiming to do one today and probably the second tomorrow.
Two Flared Tunics Cut Out And Ready To Sew
These will replace the tunic tops I made last fall – the fabric pills badly (I have to shave it after every wearing) and they are just a tad snug in the bum. So they will go to Hand in Hand – the St. Vincent De Paul thrift shop in the area. These days my rule is: something new in the wardrobe means something out! My wardrobe is still embarrassingly large I’m just trying to keep it under control.

Loved the tunic. Are we still on for lunch Saturday? Noon?
What about putting a cowl or turtle neck same fabric on one of the tunics?
Good idea – I’ll think about that on one of the next ones.
I took a look at how to construct a cowl neck – not difficult but needs to be done before you cut out the front (or back, depending where you’re putting the cowl). I’ve already cut both tops out. I’m thinking a cowl scarf might be interesting – although I don’t think I have enough fabric left over to make one deep enough to drape as a cowl. Another time. Good idea, though.
