Tuesday Project Roundup: Tunic Two

I am not complaining about the cold and wet weather this spring, because if I do, the weather wins. Instead, I am sewing more tunics to keep the skinny jeans in rotation until it's warm enough for bare legs.

This is the final piece of the fancy fabric stash I got last summer, sewn up in the French pattern I made as a dress. As we all know, it's not a hippy smock if the pattern is from France--and I think the print takes the look a little more towards worldly bohemian than drum circle.

What is the print, you ask?

Art Nouveau viking ships, of course--to remind us to be brave, to be fierce in the face of cold Aprils, and to seize whatever prey the heart longs for.
