I searched through your blog a bit to see if the technique was mentioned elsewhere, but didn't see anything. Any help would be appreciated!picknstitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12407155799667345691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540761711646097949.post-73127243772429748182012-01-28T09:20:00.508-06:002012-01-28T09:20:00.508-06:00this is lovely and modest. thanks for sharing !this is lovely and modest. thanks for sharing !ForgiveandLove09https://www.blogger.com/profile/11034006980831926050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540761711646097949.post-52907097013545810962011-10-09T00:53:39.711-05:002011-10-09T00:53:39.711-05:00Those are too cute.

It's a normal flat fell seam, but I didn't fold the seam allowance and tuck it under the way a flat fell seam is done, because the fabric is so thick. I serged that edge instead of folding, and then top-stitched on the right side of the fabric.LiErhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13022645291278425282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540761711646097949.post-48552905221982351182011-10-07T07:58:21.546-05:002011-10-07T07:58:21.546-05:00I love tunics and this one is wonderful.

Thanks! These are actually muslins ...@<a href="#c1103702645151499374" rel="nofollow">Jessica Stier</a><br />Thanks! These are actually muslins # 3,4 and 5. The first one was very loose and the raglan line was too high, but it was also translucent, so no photos. The second was the pink one, which was good, but also translucent, so no photos either. These three modeled muslins differ only in the neckline and wrists, actually (so anal, I know), and only slightly (like 1/4"). They aren't pictured in order (the pink and grey is #5, for instance. But the main point of making so many near-identical muslins is to test the pattern in different kinds of knits. All three Tshirts in this post are made of different kinds and thicknesses of knits (translated: different stretch factors). The tunic is slightly looser in the armpit than the Tshirts, because sweatshirt fleece is not very stretchy compared to the Tshirt knits (interlock, jersey etc). And the neckline and sleeves are also different, of course, but that's attributed to design rather than fit. I know it all sounds incredibly anal, but that's what muslins are for, I guess!LiErhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13022645291278425282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540761711646097949.post-11037026451514993742011-10-06T13:43:05.787-05:002011-10-06T13:43:05.787-05:00Lovely!

This one looks great!<br />So I'm curious as to what alterations you did between your muslins and your finished tunic. I can't really see a difference. What did you do?
