My First Wikstens

I love the Wiksten sewing patterns.

I first saw the Wiksten Tova tunic popping up on Pinterest about 6 months ago and at the time couldn’t justify spending $30 for a pattern ~ so worth every dime! It wasn’t long after I got my pattern in that the Tank starting popping up and of course I had to get that pattern too. Only this time, I noticed that they sell them as PDF downloads and for much cheaper … nice!

I ended up making the tank first since I figured I could knock it out pretty quick. You have to print out quite a few pages from the PDF and piece together the pattern. Looked a bit daunting but it actually went together well. Very clear instructions!

I made it with the Fig Tree Quilts Spouts in Ocean fabric from their California Girl collection and absolutely LOVE how it turned out. When I find the time, I want to make about a dozen more. So easy and so cute .. my idea of a perfect pattern!

Want to see more tanks? I searched Pinterest and found quite a few versions.

Check back tomorrow and I’ll show off my Tova. I love it just as much and just so happen to be wearing it today
