Time for "Soft Cozies"
As the days turn chilly in Western New York,
it's time for "Soft Cozies"
...the name my nieces give to the various fleece tops
I design and sew for them this season, every year.

This Lilac fleece "swing" tunic features a curved bodice seam that is decoratively top-stitched and adorned with sweet flower shaped shell buttons. Starting with an Ottobre pattern, I liberally made design changes to suit the soft flowing look that I wanted this garment to have.

What a neat shirt! I bet your niece will love it.
What kind of fleece do you use?
Hi Lisa....This particular fleece came from deep in my fabric-stash...so it is probably Malden Mills. However, I have had marvelous results with the "anti-pill" fleece from the chain stores in recent years..it lasts through an entire season of washing and keeps looking good. Good enough for 7 and 9 year-olds who are quite picky about how they look, LOL!
Pam, darling shirt, I am sure Isabella will love it.
Soft cozies. Could you ask for a better compliment? How sweet.
Darling top, and the topstitching is the perfect touch. I think it's Soft Cozy time here, too!
What an adorable top.
This is darling. I think I want one!
That is absolutely adorable! Can you tell me which Ottobre pattern you used to start from? I've got to go dig through my magazines!
