Peasant-style top and Style Arc

Image
New Look 6892 is a fast and simple peasant-style top to sew up.  I don't sew many wovens, but this is one that is comfortable to wear. The fabric is a sheer poly chiffon, surprisingly, from Fabricland.  I don't buy a lot of Fabricland fabrics, as I find it hard to find good quality and colours/prints that I like. Most of my purchases are made online. The pants are Style Arc Elle , which is a great skinny pant pattern for stretch wovens and stable knits. The fabric is a really amazing black stretch that seems like a cross between a woven and a knit.  I purchased it a couple of years ago in Toronto on Queen Street in the garment district, and I now wish I had purchased a full bolt.  It is so easy to sew, washable, dryer-able, wrinkle free...great stuff. I think this outfit is going to become a fave for me.  Fast to sew, easy to wear, and as comfy as PJ's.
