Default Tops and Tunics

Hi, everyone !!

I wanted to show you my last creations. They were made for two of my girlfriends B-days ! One of them received it today ( the white one) - she absolutely loved it and this please me a lot ! Tomorrow I will give the other one to the second g/f. Let me know what you think. They are peasant type tops, 100% imported cotton.

Wow! These tops are very beautiful Anavmun. You sure put a lot of detail in them. Your friends are very lucky to be getting such beautiful gifts.

Thanks for posting the pics.

Is the red one see-through?
I like the detail on the white one. The stars are a cute touch.
While I don't wear that style of top, I can certainly appreciate the work and attention to detail that went into it. Nice job!

I also love the see-through red one!

For some reason I thought of the song Harper Valley PTA after posting this! Hehehe

Hey Tracy, are you on a nostalgia kick? Harper Valley PTA?

I like your work on the tops. Also not something I would wear, but I can appreciate the work. Good on you.

Those are very nice. I really like the white one. Kind of a midevil feeling to it. Being that I am a guy and that my wife posts on this forum as well, I wont comment on the see through one.

I love the detail you put into them (especially those cute little stars)! It pushes them from "good" to "great".

Wow!! I had computer isues, but once back, what a surprise! Thank you so much for your kind words, everybody! Yes, the red one is "see through", should be worn with a cami underneath!
Yes, I do love to give each of them something that would make them unique. And, wow!! My work is "great"?! I feel so alive!
Kenbo they are not so updated immitations of the Eastern European peasant shirts. Same fabric, different decorations, to bring them towards "our days", but still stay a little in the medieval times... You are absolutely correct!
Angela and Downrightart I am still working on making them more actual, and as versatile as possible. Any advice is more than welcome!
Necrorose, we are all already friends ! I am sharing with you and ask for help, ain't I?
Guys, you were awesome!! Would love to see the work of other people, too.

Kisses,
Ana
