Throwback Thursday McCall's 7155 Halter Top

This little cutie is dated 1980....the year of Elton John's Little Jeannie, Queen singing about a "Little Thing Called Love", and Blondie hit the charts big with "Call Me." OK, some of us were dancing to disco.
The halter top is easy to make and is sewn in one piece. The Wrap Top features cut-away armholes and has bias fronts with attached ties.....and depending on the wearer's mood, it can be worn frontwards or backwards. 
The pattern is for stretch knits only. It is a 90 Minute Fashion pattern. 
Make it in a sparkly, sequined fabric and you can dance all night.

Throwback Thursday...GoofingOff Style

After watching the classic "Escape from New York" (you know, the one with Kurt Russell and Ernest Borgnine) I started feeling a little nostalgic.


Ah....Snake (Kurt Russell..lucky Goldie Hawn)



Here's a little bit of 1980's nostalgic sewing.

Have fun and keep those seams straight!
