Gravatar Well, firstly congratulations, you have done such a fantastic job. You are a real inspiration Erica and just finding your blog via pattern review has got my sewing bug active again. I love that you stuck it out and finished the commitment to the contest, good luck by the way, you have a very workable wardrobe and I LOVE the jeans! BTW - what is a FBA? lol Meg


Gravatar Hi Meg! Thanks a lot! A FBA is a "Full Bust Adjustment". Patterns are drafted for a B cup and if you are larger (or smaller), you have to adjust. Even if you are a B cup, you still may have to make an adjustment if you have a hight or low bust. HTH


Gravatar You are right to be proud! What a fabulous garment set! Congratulations!


Gravatar Fantastic!! Simply fantastic.


Gravatar You did a wonderful job Erica! You have every right to be proud!


Gravatar Congratulations on finishing. I told you before and I'll tell you again. It was your blog that got me sewing again. Watching this collection come together reminds me why.


Gravatar Erica - great work (as usual). Your new wardrobe is smashing!! I especially love the dresses.


Gravatar Fantastic wardrobe additions!!! Very practical and oh so stylish!! Mission Accomplished! :oD

Glad you stuck thru it all!!! A little contest/"sew-a-long" helps with our tenacity! Heck! Why do you think I am always wanting to do a KAL!!! :op :oD


Gravatar That's a wonderful wardrobe and those jeans are PERFECT. Th sure should be your TNT jeans pattern - they fit and flatter. Be sure to post when and where to vote!


Gravatar Wow Erica. I so admire your talent and skill. Congrats on completing your project. The pieces are great. You really are an inspiration.


Gravatar Congratulations Erica !!! Your collection is a showstopper. I love it all and those jeans are TDF.


Gravatar Congratulations Erica! You have GREAT talent. I especially love the white jacket.


Gravatar Beautiful! I love all your pieces (especially that black batiste dress you just posted)! Good luck on the swap contest.


Gravatar Absolutely Marvelous! As Billy Crytal used to say. LOL.

Congrats on the completion of a beautiful collection.


Gravatar It is a wonderful wardrobe and it meets all of the requirements of not only the contest but also your lifestyle and that is the most important aspect of the contest. I loved your backstory and how all the pieces work together. I also totally understand how you felt while sewing the wardrobe! You did a fantastic job and should be very proud of yourself!


Gravatar I've been following along as you done this and it has been so neat to see you finish each piece. And inspiring. You've go me thinking I really can make my own clothes, though I definitely need to get better at sewing. Oh, and get over the laziness of not making a muslin first. :0) i do hope you win.


Gravatar It's all gorgeous! The clothes are lovely and look great on you. Congratulations on finishing the contest!


Gravatar Your SWAP is fantastic! Very stylish and you do amazing work! Good Luck! Your blog is very inspiring!


Gravatar As others have said, you got me back to the machines also. The fit you achieve is exquisite. Thanks for being such an inspiration to so many of us! I've been lurking for quite a while, but had to comment on your fab achievement.

Cherie


Gravatar Congrats for sticking with it through everything! You now have a fabulous summer wardrobe. Thanks for the review of the jeans pattern - I'll have to try that one.


Gravatar Very cool! And great outfits that will mix in with any color in your wardrobe!


Gravatar Your new wardrobe is fierce. I'd buy every single piece. In a heartbeat.

Congrats!


Gravatar Hi Erica! What a wonderful site and TERRIFIC job with the wardrobe contest. You continually inspire me! Could I ask you a favor? I see you laid out your wardrobe using Photo Shop. A while back I saw an entry in one of the PatternReview.com entries on how the person used photo shop to lay out their wardrobe on a single page with just the clothing photos outlined. But I cannot find the entry now! : ( Can you share how you did this with Photo Shop or where I might find instructions? A sincere thanks!!!!
Barbara


Gravatar Barbara H,
I'm no Photoshop expert at all. My son pretty much told me what to do. We have Adobe Photoshop CS2 which includes Adobe Image Ready (which is now obsolete). I find Image Ready to be a lot more user friendly... too bad they go rid of it.


Gravatar All of your outfits look wonderful! You did a good job.


Gravatar Congrats on completing your wardrobe! Everything looks awesome, you are so very talented and such an inspiration.


Gravatar Erica, I am totally in awe of your wardrobe, especially those jeans! Everything is beautiful!


Gravatar Erica. Wow.

First, congrats on completing your project. I admire your diligence and creativity.

Secondly and most importantly, those jeans are FLY! Has anyone asked you where you got them yet?


Gravatar Hey, well done - all your pieces look terrific!

Big round of applause


Gravatar Wow, not only is it a beautifully coordinated and variable wardrobe, but it's beautifully made, and custom fit. I'm so impressed, I really am. I especially like the jeans, the linen blouse, the polka dot dress, the tied top....never mind, I just like it all!


Gravatar Your pieces look fabulous! Who could possibly beat this? Congrats on completing your projects!


Gravatar Absolutely gorgeous! Great work.


Gravatar Congratulations! Everything goes together so well. Once I'm confident enough in my own sewing skills, I'll participate in a SWAP one day. You're my inspiration!


Gravatar Ericka, I have been secretly lurking on your site for a while and admiring your talent. Congratulations on your pieces! They are all beautiful...and I'm still astonished at you making your own jeans. But you have inspired me and my mom to take up knitting and to find a sewing class. Keep it up!!!


Gravatar Fantastic! I love all of the combinations. Now the big question is, what's next?


Gravatar The pieces are nice! Kudos to you for sticking to it. I'm very impressed, lady.


Gravatar Marvelous. Congrats on working through such a big project. Everything looks amazing, a very cohesive line.


Gravatar Love how all your pieces work for you.
I especially like the jeans and the white jacket. I understand completely about just wanting to go off and sew something else outside the wardrobe too. Bet the next project is anything BUT black/white.


Gravatar That is fabulous...absolutely fabulous! Congratulations on such a great collection.

It all works beautifully together...great work!


Gravatar Marji, I don't want to see black and white for a while! LOL


Gravatar Your collection is beautiful! I love it!! great job!!

Gravatar I love your site. I've got to bookmark you. I am such a clothes freaky fetish girl.


Gravatar Beautiful, as always. You are such an inspiration, and what a faithfyl following you have! You go, girl!


Gravatar Hello, I've been looking at your blog for a while now and finally had to post a comment and tell you how much I enjoy it! I think your clothes are absolutely beautiful; you are really talented! I think the world of sewing is SO fascinating-such as the creativity, elegance, and uniqueness a person can imprint by sewing their own fashions. Both my Mom and Grandmother are seamstresses too (well, my Grandmother used to be, she's going on 90 now!) and I will also be continuing the tradition and learning how to sew. Thanks for making such an interesting blog!


Gravatar CONGRATULATIONS!!!! Erica You did an AMAZING JOB!!! I love your Little Black (&White) Dress. SEXXY MOMMA! LOL Your work is truly an inspiration!!


Gravatar Erica, Congratulations on your fabulous collection! As always, your garments are beautiful. You are one of my favorite stylists, and I looked forward to viewing and reading about your creations.


Gravatar I wish I could vote!! Congrats. Hope you win.


Gravatar I am loving your B&W collection. So stylish. You have the best wardrobe!
