With a nod to MasterCard

Stash fabric, Ottobre Woman TNT pattern modified, a Sunday morning: Free

Custom fit and staying out of the mall: Priceless





Details on the How-To next post. We're off to the dog park.

  1. Wow! You made a dead ringer for that $59.50 tee, but I like yours better because the sleeves are a little shorter. I find elbow length sleeves somewhat awkward. Another good day in DebbieWorld!

  2. Fantastic! Great modification of the ubiquitous Ottobre tee. I would never thought of using that pattern to create that top. By the way, I'm showing your blog entry to my husband. He doesn't believe that stash fabric is free.

  3. Great minds do think alike, yours just moves into action faster. I had picked out that very same inspiration top to make in the very same color from the free stash. I wasn't going to get around to it until next week though. Now I will have the benefit of your tute too. Glad I wasn't so fast at the starter blocks now.

  7. Oh I love this, Debbie!! You seem to whip these tops up out of nowhere. Why can't the pattern companies whip up these sort of patterns for us, rather than the same old styles over and over and over again?
