Completed Sencha ON !!

Hello people

As promised here are some snaps of me in the Sencha.

I apologise in advance, I hate having my picture taken, and Mr P has had to pop out thus I had to take the snaps stood on the sofa with a camera pointing at the mirror.

Well anyway - here are the pictures. The top looks sort of lopsided as I am lopsided taking the snaps !

Untucked -glad of the extra length !

Please ignore the face - photo face is never good !

Tucked in. Oh ! The versatility !!

I must say - wearing the Sencha for the 'photo shoot' has shown me that it is a very comfy top. So although I am not sure if it is at all flattering at this point - I am certain I will wear it (probably with a cardigan) and it has a place in my affections. It will not be culled with the jumble sale pile of clothes !

A very happy bunny !! Just debating if I should start on the Jasmine now or watch telly.

Happy Sunday people

  4. Thanks Debi :-) x I am really pleased with it and how well it turned out. I am loving the nautical theme and am hopeful for a (future) coordinating wardrobe with clothes in red, navy, white and black. Sewing certainly helps you get a feel for what is working in a wardrobe and what is not. Man I LOVE sewing !! xx

  7. Thanks ladies ! :-) I must admit I prefer it tucked in - with the added length its just perfect for tucking. I wore the shirt today and it made me feel great and was super comfy. It looks cute with a cardigan and I totally know I will wear it loads. Totally stoked with it. Dont you just LOVE sewing !! xx

  10. Kirsty this is lovely. What a sweet neckline and a perfect fit. I'm sure you will get loads of lovely compliments when you wear this :-)

  11. Thank you :-) Yes she fits pretty good, am really pleased with the fit. I don't think that shows in these pictures so well due to my odd angle. I love the neckline on the shirt - it was way too high on the original pattern for me - I would have felt like I was being strangled ! I did wonder if I cut it a little too low, but actually I think it works really well. Plus it makes mine that little more different to others that I have seen xx
