More Berry Coordinates



Here are some coordinates I created over the last couple months using the fabric palettes above.  First up are two tops I made using the Danger, Curves Ahead pattern from Cutting Line Designs worn over the Shapes Six Sense skirt I made a few years ago.  This pattern includes instructions for a technique to get the finest curved, narrow hem.  You can see details of the hem, plus how I made these tops using the coordinating fabrics, including a large size, high quality mens shirt in the Flickr Album.

 




Here is my modification of the A New Dimension jacket and a top from the Just My Style pattern.   For the jacket mod, all I did was fold back/remove the sleeves on the front and back side/sleeve pieces.   I then created one pattern piece from those two pieces that is now the side piece.  You can see how I did it in my Flickr Album for the A New Dimension pattern.



Here is the now sleeveless jacket/vest worn over another Cutting Line Designs pattern,  the Just My Style top view B in a silk/linen blend.   I used that fabric for the front facings.   I love wearing these warm neutral colors that look great with brown and other berry coordinates.
