Simplicity 4669 - I made view B which is the sleeveless tank. I rounded the neckline, lengthened the back slit opening by about 1 & 1/2 inches and lined it instead of using the facings the pattern called for. I also lengthened the top 2 inches.
Simplicity 1803 - changed sleeves to shorter cap sleeves , overlocked (serged) the cap sleeve and then did bias binding for the rest of the armscye - just topstitched on the hem and lower armsyce. I wanted to avoid topstitching on the top of the sleeve.

A great pattern that offers room for bump growth. Beware, the pattern has A LOT of ease. Blogged about here.
The band starting at the back of the neck all the way to the hem of the cardigan was twice as wide as you see it now. With this thick interlock knit, it was just staying flat and making the whole thing look stiff and boxy. So I turned it to the inside and made it a sort-of facing. I actually really like it because if the cardi flops open a bit you don't immediately see the wrong side of the fabric.
Nothing, nothing makes me yearn more for the simpler, warmer days way back when, than vintage quilts. Made with recycled fabrics before they were in, used for utilitarian purposes and not for decor, made by hand, and made with love.
