Four Tops to Make Out of Woven Fabric

So I did it again -totally flaked on Made By Rae’s Spring Top Sewalong. Yeah yeah there technically is still a week to go left but hmm we’ll see maybe. But whether I get something done this week or not. I finally feel like I’m on top of my Rae Gun work load. It’s been over a year of working towards this goal but I’m finally feeling comfortable with working only a few hours during the weekends. yeah I know other people actually take weekends, I don’t think that will ever be me but the past few weekends I’ve hung out with friends, gardened, went to movies, attended kiddo birthday parties all guilt-free and all without having to stay up late sewing to make up for it. So I hoping that I can start making more stuff for me because I kind of have a hoard of fabric that I’d love to use. Here are some tops that would be a great place for me to start.

The one above is a sleeved sorbetto top by la inglesita who tweaked the a free pattern from coletterie.

I’ve got so many pieces of fabric that would be perfect for this simple woven tank. This one is by Leila at Where the Orchids Grow and she used the popular downloadable Wiksten Tank pattern.

Karen of montanachic made this darling bias bound top. I love the simplicity of it. It looks super easy to wear.

I LOVE how flickr user anotherdayforever tweaked Rae’s Spring Top pattern. I’ve always been drawn to that top but was really unsure of the ruffly flutter sleeves. I like these so much better.

After recovering my fabric boxes I kinda organized my stash so I have a box of “use for something for me soon” fabrics that I think would be great for all of these. Hopefully I’ll have some to show to you all soon.
