Meg at McCall's Patterns put this top in my head with this Instagram post
and I went straight to Style Maker Fabrics and ordered some stretch velvet!
The pattern is Vogue 9275, which I just made the jacket and shared on the Style Maker Fabrics Fall Tour and love. The top has been on my radar to make but jumped to the top of the list when Meg posted on IG about the pattern and stretch velvet. Oh, yes, I have to have one.
I ordered the Espresso Stretch Velvet and let me tell you this is great stuff. I think it looks amazing in the photos but even better in person
The pattern is quick to make but be warned it runs very big and the armholes are low. I made a small for this top and could make an XS, which I might do for another one.
The velvet was pretty easy to sew with one exception. I did have to baste the hem into place, it just kept shifting. In fact, I had to unsew my first attempt at the hem. I pulled out the needle and thread and hand basted right after using the old seam ripper. I did not put in the drawstring as per the pattern. Two reasons - 1. I wanted to wear a necklace and 2. I just have a hard time finding the drawstring and then in the right color.
The velvet drapes so beautifully and I really think this is a gorgeous fall garment. Also, a great fall statement piece.
If you are short on time but want a dramatic top, get this pattern and some stretch velvet. You will not be disappointed!
I think it will look great under my patchwork jacquard jacket, too.
It is my birthday today and I think I am going to treat myself with a fabric order. I do want more velvet for another top, so help me with the color choice.

That top is gorgeous. I suggest you just go for all three of the above. Life is short!

DeleteHappy Birthday Lori! I love that rich color!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Tasha, me too!
DeleteOh that top looks yummy! Would you mind if I copy you? That would be a great holiday top. Happy birthday too....definitely a fabric gift is perfect and I like the mauve.
ReplyDeleteThanks and yes copy away. I am thinking mauve but Michelle (Style Maker Fabrics) told me she has more stretch velvet coming in. I am waiting to see colors of those.
DeleteHappy birthday and I'd go with the Emerald. It will look good with your coloring. Although I don't see you in green to often.
ReplyDeleteThanks and I do like the Emerald and need to branch away from my blues!
DeleteGorgeous top. All the options are nice but I love that burnout.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Casey
DeleteOH! That mauve color is gorgeous! Second choice would be be the burnout -- very interesting pattern. Skip the green. Just my humble opinion ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sandy, the mauve is so pretty. Thanks for helping out.
DeleteHappy Birthday! Love, love, love this top....I really want some velvet now because I love the look of yours. As for which colour to choose next. Well, I love them all, though particularly the emerald and the burnout ones
ReplyDeleteThanks, Diane, the velvet is just so vivid and fun for fall/winter
Deletethe burnout would look great with your hair color!
ReplyDeleteThanks Julia
DeleteHappy Birthday Lori! What a beautiful top 👍🎈🎁💐
ReplyDeleteGreat top and jacket. I like the green and mauve.
ReplyDeleteLove the top and the jacket from your previous post. I bought the pattern awhile back, and it is so helpful to see how your versions look and to hear about your sizing suggestions. I'm inspired to go make my versions! Hope you had a wonderful birthday.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, to a beautiful enabler. It was just my birthday as well, so I treated myself to this pattern & some rich maroon stretch velour to give this top a try ;)
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful! Thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteI think youve created some actually interesting points. Not also many people would actually think about this the way you just did.

Without businesses he believes we would still be living in caves or mud huts, we would spend all our time searching for food and water. There would be no schools, no doctors, no police, no government,no cars, no television, nearly nothing, This is one of a series of articles aimed by Grandad at grandchildren everywhere.
