Hey all I have been keeping a secret for a year now! Let me tell you it was one hard secret to keep. I made a garment which is going to be in a book and it is very exciting.
I made a tunic for The Tunic Bible written by Sarah Gunn and Julie Starr.
Here is the details from the Press Release:
Sew the perfect tunic to express your style—from simple
and modest to daring and chic! Mix and match collars, neck
plackets, and sleeves for an endless variety of professional,
store-quality results. Stitch up a sharp bodice pattern,
designed to fit sizes XS to XXL, in assorted lengths, styles,
and trims. Well respected in the sewing industry for their
pattern reviews and online garment challenges, Sarah
Gunn and Julie Starr make the tunic accessible and exciting
for those with basic sewing skills and beyond.
■ Create chic, ready-to-wear tunics with a multi-length,
graded pattern and expert construction tips
■ Choose your style—casual, preppy, boho, or glamorous—
with interchangeable sleeves, neck plackets, and collars
■ Get advice on shopping for fabric and trims, guided by a
huge gallery of inspiring tunic tops
Let me tell you, there is so many options to create an amazing tunic. We can start with the placket, then the sleeves (length, cuff options, etc), length of the tunic, band finishes, slits or not slits and then all the embellishing you can do,
Head over to The Tunic Bible website and just see all the amazing tunics, which Julie and Sarah have created.
My wants for the tunic were a casual one, so I went with a plaid flannel which came from
Style Maker Fabrics, along with the chambray. My flannel is sold out but here is some great other options
A little more about the authors.....

Lovely! The more tunics I see, the more I want one (or two, or three...) Perhaps by the end of this blog tour I'll really be convinced!
ReplyDeleteI would like one maxi length.
ReplyDeleteThat looks darling on you Lori! I think it's neat how you can mix and match parts and pieces until your heart is content. Once you have your perfect fit, you're golden to make gobs of garments with countless variations - so cool!
ReplyDeleteLovely tunic, Lori! I would try one with long sleeves first as it is far too cold now where I live. Is there such a thing as a winter tunic? :-) After seeing all the different versions made by talented bloggers I think there are no limits.
ReplyDeleteI like the placket tunic with long or 3/4 sleeves as I like my arms covered. I would embellish the placket with embroidery, I have a favorite tunic that is worn out that I would like to duplicate
ReplyDeleteI like your shorter look---tunics are very versatile.
ReplyDeleteI'm beginning to think I'd like a tunic! Natural fabric, short length, long sleeves perhaps some embellishment on front neckline. Casual.

ReplyDeleteThe shorter tunic is very flattering and versatile, thank you for sharing. I'm not sure which style I'd try first, but I'm thinking about a sleepless version for warmer months.
ReplyDeleteOh, i live in tunics. Which features? All of them. This might be the all purpose, never need another pattern starting point :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute tunic! I like your version very much. I'd like to try some of the neckline variations.
ReplyDeletei love the versatility of the tunic. I would love this book.
ReplyDeleteLove all the versions I'm seeing pop up all over the internet. The sleeve and neck variations make the possibilities endless and fun.
ReplyDeleteI think I would sew each version in the book, starting with the ruffle neckline.
ReplyDeleteI want to #tryalltheoptions. My mom and I will wear them.
ReplyDeleteI would begin with the classic tunic in linen.
ReplyDeleteI wanted to learn to sew so I could make the perfect tunic. I can't wait to try out lots of options to figure out what that is. My favorite RTW is plain with no placket but I love versions with wide embroidery or texture on the neckline. Basics first since I'm a fairly new at sewing. Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteLovely tunic, Lori! I'd like to try a silk tunic dress with embroidery at the neckline.
ReplyDeleteI would make a maxi tunic with an exposed embellished facing!
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of a split cuff. It has a different look and yet has a practical application. I am looking forward to seeing all of the embellishment ideas.
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of making the tunic your own with so many different ideas--I am thinking about the ruffled neck as a maxi!(bajjmayerATaolDOTcom)
ReplyDeleteI think I would like to make a dress length tunic with the split sleeves, or maybe ruffle sleeves :-)
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to get the Bible, but winning one would be better. Love the idea of flannel for fall/ winter, with a ruffle collar, and modifying long sleeves with traditional placket cuffs.

A ruffle collar sounds great, as well as all the options for contrasting fabrics! I'd love to win a copy of this book...thanks for including me in the drawing! (anniewannieannie@gmail.com)
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of plaid flannel, especially as the weather changes. Three quarter sleeves are my thing as I am at the PC for a good part of the day...Thanks for the opportunity to win!
ReplyDeleteI love the fabric you chose and it will be so comfortable in flannel.
ReplyDeleteI love tunics and would like to mix up some of the components for different looks. Thanks

ReplyDeleteI am just excited to try a tunic, not yet any idea about features...
ReplyDeleteNice review...I love the personal tidbits about the authors. I'm interested in reading the book and experimenting with making a tunic...so many options to choose from. kathyhills22 (at) gmail (dot) com
ReplyDeleteGreat tunic! I would make it with black silk and golden beads!
ReplyDeleteI love the mid length sleeve options. And those placket. I want to add packets to everything.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great concept! So versatile with all of the variations of neckline, sleeve finish and length options! I can't wait to get my hands on this book!!!

ReplyDeleteYour tunic looks great! I look forward to reviewing the Tunic Bible.
ReplyDeleteI would love to make a sleeveless tunic dress in a blue floral! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteThis book's going on my Christmas list!
ReplyDeleteThe tunic looks wonderful on you, Lori!
ReplyDeleteReceived my book and ready to make a muslin. You and I seem to be similar size. What size did you cut?
ReplyDeleteWould be so helpful if bloggers would include what size they wear in rtw, what size pattern they used and alterations. Any additional info you can give would be so appreciated.
Wow. This one outfit is really the pretty one and makes your personality impressive. I hope that wearing it, you will have best in summer season.
