keeping it simple
Hello there,
A little while ago I had the pleasure of testing out one of the new patterns about to become available at Betsy Ross (it's available now). Aimee, the pattern guru over there happens to be one of my Philly peeps and I was thrilled to have the opportunity to help her out...getting a new top sweetened the deal a little too. Anyway, sewing this simple raglan sleeve top was so easy, like really easy, and it's cute -- sometimes something being easy doesn't necessarily mean it's cute, not the case here.

More of these tops are cut out and ready to be sewn up...all I need is some fusible interfacing. When will I learn to stock up on stuff like that? Hopefully soon.
Happy Cinco De Mayo,
Leya



So perfectly cinco and Mayo! I was so curious what you were up to with that glimpse of a pattern on your Pink and Red day. Turned out super cute as per usual!
