Hey y’all! I’m back! It’s been one whole year since I haven’t sewn anything for myself or for anyone other than a custom dress I did for a good friend. I have a completely legitimate excuse though; I was away from home for 7 months AND I have lost 42 pounds! I was trying my best not to make anything for myself until I got down a whole size in which I did, and some!
So here is what I decided to make first. THE WIGGLE! Patterns For Pirates has had this pattern out for quite some time. I remember when it released, in the Facebook group there were hundreds and hundreds of women posting their beautiful wiggle makes. At the time, I just didn’t see myself ever making one, because most of the makes were for fancy occasions. I’m telling you, the women in this dress were just absolutely stunning. I would see comments on how this pattern was for every shape and size, it was just that good! Unfortunately, we can be so harsh on ourselves, stuck in our ways and image of ourselves. So I never purchased the pattern, until now! Let me tell you! If you want to feel sexy as ever, THIS IS THE PATTERN. I can’t believe how sexy this top makes me feel and it literally fits like a glove.

I was looking for some different styles to sew for my new wardrobe because everything is fitting me so loose. Also, I feel much more confident wearing tighter fitting clothes now. I looked at all their tester photos and saw the Tee and was so shocked that I never saw it before, or maybe I did and just thought I wouldn’t look good in it? Anyway, I bought it, immediately printed it out, pieced it together and got to cutting my first one! I have this leopard print Ponte from So Sew English that I have now made 3 things out of! A cardigan that I modified into a jacket from GreenStyleCreations, a Super Sleeve tee by G+G and now a Wiggle Tee by P4P! I had to work it good because I only had cut pieces left over and it was just enough to squeeze this baby out! I’ll definitely be getting more of this fabric if they ever bring it back. The Wiggle pattern was so fast and easy to sew up. I was so surprised on how easy it was….seriously! I was expecting a much more complicated pattern, but nope, super fast to sew up! So fast, I had two more cut up right after I finished this one.
Hellooooo sexy! This top makes me feel so incredibly sexy. I’m not even wearing spanx ladies!
I used my Juki Coverstitch machine for the first time since I got it a year ago and it is such a game changer! Look at those hems!
Next I made a black one, and now I need to make one in a dress version.
I’m so in love with this pattern. I have around three more planned to make of different patterns and colors. I would really love to make one with sweater knit or ribbed knit for Fall! And I know I’m super late in the Wiggle game but better late than never!
Last but not least! I made this with leftover fabric from my friends custom dress. There was just enough to get this out and I have a bit from a part of the skirt that I had cut too short, so I can pair it with the pencil skirt once I modify it to fit my measurements! FYI it’s not even hemmed yet! Lol
Do I recommend you get this pattern? Absolutely YES! I want to make so many different versions AND I want to make the fancy dresses as well. I have a wedding to attend in November that I want to mash the crop top version with a high low circle skirt. The possibilities are endless with this pattern. It’s casual, chic, sexy, to drop dead gorgeous roll out the red carpet!
This is not an affiliate post. Just my honest review of this pattern 😊.
You will be seeing many more pattern reviews, I got my sewjo back! So follow the blog or my Instagram for more @Sewcurvysewfabulous.
Love Notions never fails to deliver. I have been wanting a comfortable non tummy hugging tee since like FOREVER. Also, one that would not take more than a yard to make, which seemed so unrealistic for my size. I buy PDF patterns like crazy, and even though I have some great patterns, I usually end up modifying them in some shape or form so that they fit me better AND they always take up more than a yard of fabric. We just finished testing this Classic Tee from Love Notions and OH EM GEE! For one, I CANNOT BELIEVE I can get a shirt out of a yard and even a smidge less than a yard! Yes, I am an XXL and I thought that would be impossible. But its not! ITS NOT! I have a hoard of one yard cuts of the most beautiful fabric that I thought were only ever going to become pencil skirts or underwear. NOT ANYMORE! So like I said, Love Notions never fails to deliver! This Tee has a variety of neckline and sleeve options and is drafted for a relaxed fit. Also has a full bust adjustment pattern piece for you ladies who need it! Its already done for you! 😉
Also, the first time I tagged my own personal makes. Ive tagged stuff I made for friends and family but never my own. It felt so nice, I admit, to see my makes looking so professional! 
 I made so many of these tees during testing that I have a bunch more to finish hemming and take pictures of. Im sure you will be seeing more posts of my Classic Tee’s! Head on over to
