Just before I was about to cut out my second Lane Raglan by Hey June Patterns, I heard rumors that there was an update coming out. I waited a week and was able to cut out the new and improved version! Adrianna has done it again! I love the new contoured shoulder and bust areas.
I used some fabric I bought of one of the Facebook destash pages. This paisley is a soft single brushed poly spandex. The black is a bamboo spandex from my stash. I cut out a small, but because the rayon had more than 50% stretch, it was too big. I cut the blouse apart at the seamlines and cut it out again, this time as an x-small. I made a few changes – narrowed in the neckline a bit at the sides, because rayon grows. I took a 1/2 inch length from the bodice and 1 inch from the sleeves. I hemmed the sleeves and bodice with my coverstitch machine.

This time I made the curved hemline. The rayon is not the most forgiving fabric on the body, but it’s super super comfortable! I could wear this blouse to bed it’s so soft!
Ugh! I need to go jeans shopping. These are clearly too big…just haven’t gotten around to it. I really didn’t expect to lose so much weight from getting off sugar.
If you haven’t tried this pattern, it is the bombdiggity and it is super easy! Order yours here.
Great colour combination, a bit different from a basic Tee.
