Made an Easy Peasy 10 Minute Blouse/Top Today!

Today I decided to start my winter sewing. I haven't sewed for quite a while and I wanted to make something that I can be proud to wear since I have lost about 45 pounds since May.

I bought this bolt of pink knit at a garage sale this summer. I had in mind to use it to teach my daughter, Mariah how to sew, but she does't really care for the color, (she says it too much pink. :o(

So I decided to experiment with some different, (wear around the house) tops and see what I like best in pattern selections before I commit expensive material to a project.

I saw a shirt just like this at Target and they 18 bucks. I looked at it and thought, no way, I could so this up in a half an hour. Then the other day I was searching sewing tutorials and found this one.

She already did the math, she has versions for toddlers, children and adults in google docs ready for you to download.

Thanks Jenny!

 Boy they must be right about a picture adding 20 pounds or is it the color pink. This doesn't flatter my weight loss at all, :(

But I said I would put a pic up so here it is. Off now to go trick and treating at the college dorms with my 10 year old son, Levi.
