For this module, I wanted 3 distinct necklines for the tops. The first one, blogged here, is a turtleneck, the second one, blogged here, is a scarf-collar, and this one is a crewneck. I think this crewneck tee might be too casual for an in-person classroom, but it'll be fine via Zoom. She's wearing it here with Jalie Eleonore's in navy stretch cotton twill. I made these pants about four years ago and they have gotten a lot of wear. These pants, along with the Levi's she wore with the other two tops, make up the "bottoms" portion of her work from home module.
My first Love Notions Classic Tee can be found here. This one is the same except I added long sleeves. The fabric is from Stylemaker Fabrics and it is a cotton/lycra jersey. I love this shade of coral. It has a bit of heft to it, but that's okay since colder temperatures are on the way.
There weren't any issues sewing this top. As always, I stabilized the shoulders, this time with twill tape. I used my Pfaff's stretch stitch on all seams, serged all seam allowances, and coverstitched the hems and around the collar.
This top has a boxy bodice--perfect for those times when you don't want a skin tight layer next to your stomach! It should be a very comfortable top to wear while working.
Next up, the topper: Helen's Closet Blackwood Cardigan. Ta ta for now!
