Fancy a Late Lunch?
I do.
The Liesl+Co Late Lunch tunic that is.
Another lovely pattern from the lovely Liesl.
I made this pattern up when I was about 30 weeks pregnant with Beatrix, from a wool/modal knit.
It was lovely if a little voluminous, which I put down to the fabric 'growing'.
So I decided to make another, the same size, but in a woven.
Size 8 with a DD FBA.
I ran through the process here.
What a difference some firmness makes.
(Works with my children too- snigger)
The fabric is a silvery sheen coated linen, it sewed up beautifully!
I topstitched all the seam for a casual look and went with my signature MOP buttons.
As well as my signature speckley voile trim.
With the FBA it fits like a glove, I am so pleased.
Modelled pictures soon.
Check out who is growing fast....

Very pretty top! I love the gathers in it. And my she is getting so big!!
ReplyDeleteThis is the nicest top on my body shape. Tiny shoulders, big boobs and a bit messy in the middle :)
DeleteI love it, thank you!
Trixie is growing way too fast!

The top is so pretty! I really like the fabric and the sheen it has to it. Beatrix is adorable too!
ReplyDeleteThank you Elizabeth, I went to buy some more of this linen but it was all sold out.
DeleteBeatrix is such a poppet, we adore her.

That looks fantastic! I gave my first one to a friend and am keen to make a second (more appropriately sized). Looking forward to seeing the modelled version. And that little one, she is growing so fast! Adorable.
ReplyDeleteI read your blogpost Lara, and sized back and FBA-ed up on your advice. I could see this in one of your amazing fabrics you rock so well!
