Easy Tee

Happy Sunday!

Here I am again with amazing fabric, my new favorite tank top, and a Hot Air Balloon ride?!?!

5oo4 4X Easy Tee 11

My second sew from my first order from Stitchin’ Pretties is this very patriotic FLORAL print. Red, White, and Blue Floral. Can you even believe it? I know you will love it as much as I do. It is called Beth. It is the super soft double brushed poly that I love. You can get your own here. You will love it trust me.

I think this is perfect for wearing at July 4th, Memorial Day, Labor Day, and Tuesdays and again on Fridays. I kinda love it! It also matches my capris perfectly!

I had originally planned a peplum tank top, but then the Easy Tee by 5 out of 4 patterns went on sale. I was sure I would make a Tee Dress, but then I saw the tank top. If you can’t tell by these pics, I am rocking a pretty intense sunburn and basically wanted nothing to touch my skin so tank tops to the rescue!

I love the wide straps on this one. If covers my bra strap with no chance of it showing. I hate bra straps showing in public! Honestly, I hate it! I chose the length with the curved hem. I also selected the scoop neck option. One of my favorite things about 5oo4 patterns is they  are always loaded with options.

Here is the options list for this pattern:

  • Shirt, Tunic, Short dress, and Knee Length Dress options
  • Hemmed or Band options for the shirt and tunic
  • Curved hem option that is in between the shirt and tunic lengths
  • Pockets for the dress options
  • Maternity pattern piece
  • Optional waist tie and breast pocket
  • Crew neck, scoop neck, or v-neck
  • Hoods for both the crew and the scoop neck versions
  • Cuffs for all sleeve lengths (sleeveless, short, 3/4, long, and extra long), including thumb hole cuffs if you want them!

And then this happened…

I am a single dog mom of two and we happily reside in a small house in Ohio. We spend our days playing fetch, digging holes in the garden, and sewing, lots of sewing. We have high hopes of moving to the mountains someday. The dogs don’t really know that yet, but they will understand. I shamelessly hoard fabric and feel slightly sorry for whoever has to sort my stash when I am gone. I am employed full time in a industry that requires little of my creativity, but basically lets me wear whatever I want. So it works out. I can usually be found behind one of my sewing machine avoiding human contact. I test a lot of clothing patterns and therefore always have a new outfit to share. You have most likely found my blog through some sort of sewing outlet and will quickly realize that I am sewing for a plus size body. For reference, I am 5'1 and wear a range from a 2-5x. Sizes change with every designer and you can't trust ready to wear sizing when you are making your own clothing. Your tape measure will become one of your most used tools and if you misplace them like I do, you should pick up several. I will be sharing the good, the bad, and the A-MA-ZING with you… So stay tuned. I will also try to teach you a few of my tricks along the way. People always tells me they want to learn how to sew. My best advice is you have to start. Just do it! You are going to mess up, you will break needles, you will ruin the pretty fabric, you will stab your fingers, but you will learn. You will make something and you will wear it. Someone will say, “I like your shirt.” and you will smile and say, “Thanks, I made it.” You will race home and make something else. Pretty soon you have made more good things than bad and you will feel proud of yourself and you should. I will be proud of you too. :) Ok, that is enough rambling, I have sewing to do. :) SequoiaLynn
