McCall’s 6120: Knit Top & Tunic

415Navy Top 003

Same shirt, different day.

I made the navy polyester tunic version last week, I just hadn’t switched my machine back over to coverstitch to finish the hems so it sat waiting to be finished. Today I made the black Tencel short-sleeved version (and the linen pants but that is another post!)

I put up a complete review on Sewing Pattern Review of both versions. Needless to say, I love this pattern! It sews up so fast, especially since I can use the serger for almost all of it. The slowest thing about it is converting my machine back and forth from over-lock to cover-stitch.

We finally received the fashion fabrics at the store last week. I was so excited! There is a collection of the soft Tencel knits in a nice selection of colors. I’m planning to buy some of every color (Except the orange!) the make shirts. This pattern may get pulled out a few more times for them. There is also a ITY print that is pretty wild and fun that would make a cute tunic in this pattern.
