Gravatar Nice. The embellishment is just right


Gravatar Wow, Erica, BEAUTIFUL!!!! The embellishment used shows your good taste and match this style perfectly! Well done!


Gravatar Ooh, perfect. I've seen some RTW ones in the store that are over the top. I'd definitely have to belt too. What do you do about laundrying it? Is it dry clean only?


Gravatar Very cute! You know I want one of these now. I have the same question as Roslyn. How will you wash it?


Gravatar Erica, I really like everything about this top. It looks splendid on you. What brand of coverstitcher do you use and/or recommend?


Gravatar This is gorgeous, and you look so fabulous with bangs, much, much younger and more hip. The embellishments you finally chose complement the top perfectly, it looks elegant on you.


Gravatar Very cute top, the embellishment is perfect. Did you find those in the sewing dept. at Hobby Lobby?


Gravatar This is a beautiful top. I love the embellishment and the belted look.


Gravatar I love the way you are able to produce (and reproduce) very current fashions! The embellishments on the tunic are perfect! Are they glued or sewn on?


Gravatar Very flattering! I love the beaded trim that you found - it's perfect!


Gravatar This is a total score, and look at those toned arms!


Gravatar The top is stunning and the embellishment is just right! But did you have to do anything extra in terms of interfacing to handle the extra weight of the pieces?


Gravatar The top is stunning and you found the perfect embellishment to keep it on trend and stylish without being too much.


Gravatar Great work, fab top, wonderful review. Super choices for embellishment. Looks amazing on you and you in it.


Gravatar That looks great on you.
I had purchased this pattern to make for my daughter, but now that I see yours, I'm first!


Gravatar Roslyn & Adrienne:
I'll just handwash it!

Coolbreeze:
I have a Brother 2340CV.

Lori:
I found them in the dept. with the all of the beads, stones and crystals.

Elaray:
They are sewn on.

Carolyn:
Nope... I just used regular knit interfacing. They really aren't that heavy.


Gravatar That is great - I really like the embellishments you chose - exactly right, not too bling-blingy. Thanks also for the sizing info.


Gravatar Very cute top! I really like the embellishments too. Thanks for answering how you applied them.


Gravatar Beautiful top. I also want to make this top but didn't know what to do about the embellishment part since I don't like a lot of bling. lololololol You've just inspired me.


Gravatar I really really like the wooden pieces you chose as embellishment. Such a nice change from what we're usually seeing right now. Way to work your own style into your garments!


Gravatar WHOO HOO! Perfect choices!! Enjoy, you look beautiful.


Gravatar Ooh, this is fabulous Erica! This could have easily turned into a bedazzled happy-hands-at-home project, but this looks very RTW (but better!), as always. Great job!


Gravatar I dont see where you sewed the rectangle ones? is it hidden?


Gravatar @ Mimi:
The holes are on the ends and on the inside.


Gravatar I love the top and it looks amazing on you.


Gravatar Erica, I can truly relate to your feeling "maternity-ish" in flowing tops. I have that same feeling when I put on the tops that seem to be in style now. I usually end up not feeling quite right in them, especially since I have 4 babies, and never enjoyed being pregnant. I, however, feel that this top would look just fine on you worn without the belt. I think it fits into the styles that are current, and your "look" could pull it off without it being, even close, to looking "maternity-ish" :0)


Gravatar I didn't like the picture on the pattern package, but now that I see a "real" one made, I love it. The colors and embellishments you chose are outstanding. ANd the color and style look gorgeous on you. I like it belted.


Gravatar Arizona, I too, reconsidered this pattern after Erica posted that she was planning to make it (AND after dh game me a similar top for my b-day that I love!) and I'm not disappointed in her results.
Wanted to buy it at the last JoAnn McCall sale, but of course they were out of it!
Erica, love the embellishment, Perfect.


Gravatar Great looking tunic. The neckline embellishment is fabu.


Gravatar Killer! The belt totally brings it together.


Gravatar Great choice on the embellishments.


Gravatar I love your embellishment choice!


Gravatar I like this. I really like the trim you chose. You always look stunning in whatever you wear.


Gravatar Erica you are such a GREAT inspiration to so many people...especially me. I love this top as well as everything else you show us. I'm making the geometric tee that you showed several posts ago - Simplicity 4076 even in the same print you used. Hope you don't mind my copying you, but being able to see from your posts exactly what a pattern will look like is SUCH A BIG HELP! Thank you!


Gravatar This is so cute, I love the trim. And also, I am a bit behind, but I love the new hair too!


Gravatar Erica, You tamed this pattern into a perfect fit for you. I tried this pattern and left it in the muslin stage. I just posted on my blog about it and referenced back to here for people to see one that fits beautifully. I still don't know if I will try and make this again. Your version certainly makes me want to try again.


Gravatar Yet another beautiful top. I too have this pattern. Your embellishment choice was juat the right touch.


Gravatar Very cute and very versatile!!!


Gravatar Once again a stunning piece. Girl everything you make looks good. By the way love the bangs. Always a fan of your clothes. I have to start sewing I must lol.

God belss


Gravatar absolutely wonderful! looks really nice. your workmanship is just really impressive.


Gravatar You are simply awesome. Awesome seamstress & amazing person for putting this all on the web to share.
Thank you!


Gravatar digging the hair!


Gravatar I love the top. It looks good on you and the toned down "bling" is just the right daytime tcuch.


Gravatar Fabulous Tunic and like the embellishments.


Gravatar Erica, I love the color you used .... chocolat brown. I hope that you enjoy your new garment. greetings. Paco


Gravatar I love it! You look fabulous in this top!


Gravatar HOT! HOT! HOT!


Gravatar Erica, a wonderful top and the embellishments are PERFECT!


Gravatar Love It! The ethnic embellishments are perfect - enough to make it interesting without overpowering it!


Gravatar I love this shirt. And, your new do.


Gravatar You're bangs are the hotness! Now you look like a hot mama instead of a stylish mama ( you were still pretty before).


Gravatar Cute top with the right embellishments. Like your new hairdo. When I first saw the photo I thought "WHAT A POWERFUL WOMAN" she is. Great job!


Gravatar Girl you just blow me away. I think I love everything you've sewn.


Gravatar Nice! I really like your choice of embellishments. I'm more of a natural, earthtone kinda girl so I like that better than the bling.


Gravatar That is nice. Girl you be working it!!!! Q
