Washi tunic

Well I've had two quilts finished for a few weeks now but I've been a lazy blogger. And, I want to show you something different! A Washi tunic for me!

I downloaded this pattern over a year ago but hadn't taken the plunge until now. I never could figure out what fabric I wanted to use. But when I saw a plaid version in the Washi Flickr pool, I knew that's what I wanted for a fall/winter version.

The only major thing I changed was to add about 4" in length to the tunic pattern. And I shrunk the sleeves waaaay down so that there would be no gathers in the shoulder and it would be more fitted. I'm so happy with how it came out! I was pretty nervous about it because making clothes is not my strong suit, nor do I enjoy it much.
