I've done that so it's good to know that I'm walking in the footsteps of a more accomplished sewist. The tunic is fantastic. I understand why you've made it again...and as far as comfort goes, it's the third word on my list when describing my sewn garments. So I understand that too!Carolyn (Diary of a Sewing Fanatic)https://www.blogger.com/profile/02204627216540667980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7871855805349050304.post-31569078944814983292013-11-22T08:27:58.716-05:002013-11-22T08:27:58.716-05:00Elegant as always Bunny :)Elegant as always Bunny :)RhondaBusshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12555069797738423675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7871855805349050304.post-45387933104966315442013-11-22T01:41:54.107-05:002013-11-22T01:41:54.107-05:00Poly fabrics are not the demon, just very poor qua...Poly fabrics are not the demon, just very poor quality ones.
