I am real square neck fan, so I was keen to try the New Look 6356 pattern out. I used just under a metre of my Swizzle fabric in teal. It's a pretty simple pattern, with just a small zipper at the back. The whole thing took about 3 hours to sew (in between a bit of blogging and fairy floss). Once I'd finished it, I realised that I'd forgotten to sew one of my new labels into it ... bugger! Anyway, it was just so nice to start and finish something in the same sitting - I can't remember the last time I did that and made something just for me. Hope your Sunday is a good one!

How nice to have some extra time you did not expect and actually finish something! And for yourself!!! - such an indulgence :) Its lovely.
I really like square necklines too... how lovely to have a bit of sewing time (and even better having fairy floss)!
Lovely! What a beautiful neckline. New Look have some really great designs.
(I usually fuel-up on chocolate for my sewing!)
Very sweet. I've forgotten to sew in labels before too - just hand-sew one in. x
Extra time is a great thing and hard to get with little ones. I love the teal and white very refreshing, just right for Spring, if that sun ever decides to come out!
I often forget to sew in my labels! Glad you got some good time in. I like the Yardage Design sign there, too.
Beautiful. I like to finish what I start, too. Usually don't get back to it for a while if I don't. Looks great in the fabric....Terese
Now thats my kind of sewing spree - the fairy floss would really be helping me along on the concentration front. I love your top, its super sweet, and in your very own fabric. Tres cool!
ace on having extra time on getting things done. :)
My Sunday was v packed with preparation prior to the Fairy Floss Markets! X
Lovely! I reckon something empire line waisted, a la the Bennet girls in Pride and Prej, would come up a treat in swizzle!
OH! It is gorgeous! Really really gorgeous.
