My relative success with the Love Notions Laundry Day Tee (LDT) really did inspire me to try again with the Concord Tee. And not because I don’t like the LDT, but because I really love the look of the Turner Dress. So I am working towards making the Turner Dress.

Oh, and the Turner dress has the perfect neckline to make a lovely blouse I saw. But I’ll leave that for another post.

I’m pretty happy with how my Concord turned out this time. Skipping the waist measurement and making it more swing really was the key. I think I could add a little more ease at the hip line. Just so the garment flowed a little more there.

Actually, the pattern curves down. It would probably better suit me if I just made it a complete swing style.    Fitting wise, the bust is fine, and the neckline and shoulders are fine. I did a FBA (full bicept adjustment) for the sleeves and they’re fitting fine. There’s enough room under the arm now. The hip isn’t tight, so it’s pretty good too really. Overall, I’m happy with how this turned out. I see a Turner dress in my future.

Happy creating!
