Where Flowers Bloom Blog Hop Day 1



For months now many people have been working 
on all kinds of flower projects to inspire you!  
Carla of Creatin’ in the Sticks is our hostess and
 I am grateful to be able to participate in this blog hop.

I went through a bunch of fabric trying to figure out what I wanted to make. 
 At the time my oldest daughter had her second daughter in less than a year.
Carla said we could make anything as long as it has flowers!
So, I did a little creative thinking!

Having been killing time at doctors appointments and 
at the hospital I had been watching a lot of online classes and Youtube videos!
 I came across a sewing course on 
Creativebug called 

Wardrobe Basics: Sewing Tunic No. 1

Using her -  #100 Acts of Sewing Patterns
(Which are free with the course)
By Sonya Philips

Flower Tunic 1 




This fabric is by Anna Maria Horner and comes in 4 colorways!
I think it is gorgeous!
I did not alter the pattern at all on this one.




Flower Tunic 2 - Tula Pink Fabric


I loved this Tula Pink print so much I have had it in my stash just waiting for the right project!

 I brought the neckline up on this shirt and added a 1 1/2” strip around the neck!  
To bring it in more!
 I really like that the patterns are easy to modify for a beginner such as myself.





A complete blog hop list is available at Carla’s of  Creatin’ in the Sticks , Where Flowers Bloom Schedule !

  8. Very nice tunics. They look quite different with the different fabrics and the little difference in the neckline. Good job on the adjustment to the neckline!

  18. OOOOH I like these fabrics also, and I would have thought that the first fabric might have needed some lining up since it looks like a directional print... Great Job on both and what fun to have something so flowery and fun to wear this summer.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Both of your tops are so perfect for summer. I really love the top with the roses.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Those look so nice, and I'm proud of the fact that you chose to sew for yourself.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Love both of your flowery tops. Can't remember the last time I actually used my machine for clothes for me. Might have to rethink that option.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Very comfortable looking, have never sewn clothes. Maybe someday.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Don't you just love it when the perfect fabric and pattern meet up, then it looks great too wearing it? Both of your tops looks awesome and you look so happy and comfy wearing them! Bravo!

    ReplyDelete
  24. That's fun! I like both shirts. I never think of making clothes for these hops. I haven't sewn any in ages, though I did recently buy a top pattern that I liked. I think I like the first one best because of the roses. =)

    ReplyDelete
  25. Cute tops. They are happy, and colorful.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Very cute tops! I used to sew garments all the time, until I got into quilting. Now, I only make the occasional garment for my granddaughters. That looks like an easy pattern that would be fairly quick. I need to make some like it. Thanks for sharing.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Wow, lovely tops and gorgeous fabrics!! I used to sew my own clothes, but not for a long time! Maybe one day I will again :) xx

    ReplyDelete
  28. What fun! I haven't made clothes in such a long time; quilting has consumed me. Great work!

    ReplyDelete
  29. Very cute and comfortable looking!

  30. Beautiful job centering all the motifs on your tunics. Fussy cutting done well!
