So here's my prep work for sewing the Alabama Chanin (AC) t-shirt. Bought my "button craft" thread (Hancock doesn't carry), a Vogue pattern on sale for those slim pants (but isn't that top cute?!), and some T-pins for better knit blocking. Now to board my flight to Asheville!

Have a wonderful trip!!
I've actually made that top. I lengthened it to make a dress instead. I interfaced the collar like the instructions said and it made it too stiff. I would not interface were I to make it again. Liked the gathered sleeve. Had not thought about the slim pants. I will have to give those a try.
Ooh - thanks for the tip!
Hi -- Have fun! I made the top too! Then I serged it a bit more closely than the picture! I did not interface. It took me awhile to figure out the gathered sleeve and I did lettuce serged edges (rolled hems).
Cool - this is apparently a popular pattern!
I made this top into a dress, too, without interfacing. AND I have the pattern on my table to try the slim pants.

Great minds think alike, and we've all got great minds!
I have this pattern too! Should make it up for cooler weather.
Oh forgot to ask....how did you like the Natalie Chanin
Craftsy class?
Loved it Ann! You should check it out!
