This time around, I'm sewing a strike off for her new round of custom knits. And I'm donating all the items I made for this weekends auction. So be sure to join the Facebook group and bid!
The print she sent me is called Drink Wars. It's a parody of sorts mashing Star Wars and Starbucks. I'm not a Star Wars fan - I've never watched any of the movies in the series. But I do love me some coffee from Starbucks. She also sent me a panel that matched the print. I apparently got the "dark" side. The images are fun, bright, and crisp. The weight of the fabric is 230 - 250 gsm, a nice heavier weight. It's so soft and plush. The fabric is available for Pre-order through June 17th.
I used the panel, main print, and solid "kelly green" knit (from Made Whimsy) to make the Women's Pretty Panel Tee from A Sparkly Baby.
Here are a few pics of me wearing the top. I made the tank version since it is summer after all. The pattern also has a sleeved version which I plan to make for myself.
The back has the option for an upper curved bodice that I really like. I love it when a top can look great in the back as well as the front.
After I made the tank, I had some scraps left over and made a tank top and some Scrundleear from Stitch Upon a Time. The Tank is a pattern I came up with. I used a darker "hunter green" for these items.
These will be up for bidding from Friday through Sunday.
Thanks!
