Robin has been asking me for several months to have a Saori sewing day class with some of her finished Saori yaradage and pieces but I was to swamped, yesterday we finely had a whole day to play and sew and drape and here are Robins new Saori tops!

From Saori hand woven yaradage, to top.

Trying it on and pinning a few times it is looking sooooo good.

All done , absolutely gorgeous and the colors are so rich.
Robin did not want to cut the the loose wefts in the front I love that look, good idea !
Cleaning up I found some scraps, so I thought of a pocket .I pinned it on , one last detail .Robin is going to sew it on at home.
Peaceful weaving...and sewing in the redwoods
