Right, I made these a little while ago and they have been well worn. So I better thought I should post them when they were ironed and looking nice. They are the Wiksten Tank, I wasn't sure of the sizing after reading what size other people had made. I am a medium normally so I made the medium but it was a bit big even around my boobs, so I took it in all over and it fit better. The second one I made the small which fitted much better, I just had the make the arm hole a bit bigger. When tracing out the pattern you can adjust is accordingly.
I love triangles and had to make it with this fabric, I love it and wear it heaps.
This one I made with a sheer fabric, I was happy with how it turned out. And these tops are everywhere in the shops now, this one is much cheaper though.
I made this skirt from the seersucker I bought at the op shop the other day for $2. I love the colours, and I wore it on that stinking hot day last week and it was nice a cool.
Me in my Wiksten tanks, I am so making more. I might even try the longer dress version too.

Wow love them and your fabric selection is divine... where did you source the fabric from?
ReplyDeleteI have this pattern and can't wait to make my own - especially after seeing yours :) Jenny
Hey Jenny, I got them both from Spotlight in Australia, it is just down the road from me, not good sometimes :) Have fun with the pattern I really like it how it sits on me.
