just finished the Elope top and pant, the sketches in the directions were fantastic, since I sew from pictures, but really fun to sew. Made the top out of lightweight linen and the pants are sewn in Moda Grunge Japanese cotton. I lengthened the top because I'm tall, but the pant length is short for me which is fine for Summer, and a slimmer fit than most of her pant patterns, which is nice for a change. Definitely will make outfit again just love both pieces, I'll post a picture when I wear it.
Oh my thatās so great. I cannot wait for my pattern. Great job!
I couldn't wait and got the PDF, love this outfit
Amazing as usual!
thanks
Really nice. .
thanks
Iāve just finished the Elope too and went wacky with the pants I will also lengthen the top next time, it was all very easy and fun to make didnāt take long at all, I actually made two pairs of pants one in a Plain Chambray.
Really nice. I made the top and pants this past weekend. I agree, it was easy to make.
Beautiful. Love the blue. Great combination
Thank you , it was a very inexpensive organza but Iām hoping to find and splash out on some silk organza next time.
@nikki40b, the cheapest place Iāve found silk organza is https://www.dharmatrading.com/fabric/silk/silk-organza-fabrics.html
It comes in black and white (and of course they have every type and color of dye in the universe!). Itās between $6 and $9, depending on color and width. I havenāt ventured into dying yet. Still trying to learn to sew, lol!
I thought the pants ran very short for me, if I didn't adjust the length they would have been just below my knees. Also it is a slimmer fit, so I made the second pair in a 3X, I like my pants big and lose. But I'm 5'10 and wear a XL or 2X. They should be perfect for you but possibly a size larger than you usually wear.
