Let's chat about this pattern for a second. Cute - check. Comfy - check. Modern details - check. Can work at the office or as sleepwear - CHECK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Cross Hem Tee is a semi fitted t-shirt pattern with a cute double hem detail, scoop or V neck, and three sleeve lengths that can take you from day to night and back to day again! So pull out all your knits, becasue this baby works in everything from jersey, to cotton lycra, to rayon blends, to stretch velvet, and beyond. Keep it classic in all one color, or mix your prints together for a one of a kind look that is sure to impress.
I've sewn up two versions so far with a third cut and waiting for me to change the thread on my serger... because black thread on a thin cream knit just isn't gonna fly.
The first is the gorgeous navy floral from rayon spandex blend from Simply By Ti. I love the vibrant colors in this print and think this might quickly become one of my most worn tees! The rayon spandex is thin and super soft with great stretch and recovery. This is the perfect type of fabric for this pattern, and for me since I don't like being hot but like to wear long sleeves in the winter. Thank you Ti for this awesomeness!!!! And I think you can tell in these pictures how much I love this, I seriously just feel amazing.
And then of course I whipped up some of the free Parisian Night PJ pants so that I could have a cute PJ set for visiting the extended family for Christmas this year. 18 people in one house means that I probably need some REAL PJ's, HA! Could this be any cuter!?!?!?!?
Then I made a date night version in this beautiful red and black rayon spandex from The Fab Clique Fabric Shop. As soon as I saw this fabric I knew I'd be sewing it up for the holidays, I am so smitten.
Check out some of the fun things my testers did - and then go get sewing, you are going to love this pattern!!!!! Get your code in the the Winter Wear Designs Fun Group and happy second day of Christmas!
