Hey Loves!
I'm back this week with my first make of 2019. In the midst of making sewing plans for 2019, I had to make something purple to wear to a church event.
FabricMart had the perfect purple scuba knit on sale in December. I bought it in anticipation for this event. It did not disappoint.
I saw this really cute outfit on IG fashion influencer @slipintostyle.
I love the style. The top was a bit bulky for my already curvy frame but the style looked relaxed and fun. I remembered I have Burda Style 6846. It's just been sitting in my pattern stash chilling, waiting for it's chance to shine. Well, the time came.
This was my first time making a Burda Style pattern. Here are my thoughts:

- Pattern is easy to follow. Great directions. Only a few pattern pieces.
- Finished garment measurements are on the pattern paper. I actually like them on the outside of the pattern to determine size and amount of fabric.
- Because of the simplicity of the pattern, I was able to finish the top and skirt in no time - cut to finish and a little TV in 3 hours.
- I probably could have used a heavier knit but it worked out. This scuba knit feels great. I think my body needed a little more support.
It's not as jazzy as my IG fashion inspiration but it's comfy. It was so comfy I kept the top on to lounge around in joggers for the rest of the day. I'll be making more of these tops!
Loves, do you have a style top that you could live in? If so, what makes it sew great?
Until next time, Smooches!
