MATERIALS NEEDED
  • Self fabric (your main fabric)
  • Matching all-purpose thread to your fabric

Optional:

  • Wooly nylon thread - For upper and lower loopers on a serger/overlock sewing machine (can also be used in the bobbin of a regular home sewing machine to increase elasticity of stitches)
  • Heat & Bond - For ease of hemming knits Heat & Bond Soft Stretch Lite or Ultra fusible web adhesive is highly recommended! It adheres like regular fusible interfacing, but it keeps the stretchability of your knit fabrics. Keeps your hem flat, not bulky, and reduces any waviness.
FABRIC REQUIREMENTS

The Nice Tri Tank is designed for stretch knit fabrics, especially rib knits. The fabric should have a minimum stretch percentage of 50% crossgrain (selvedge to selvedge). Rib knit fabrics often have a much higher stretch percentage. A variety of knit fabrics will work for this pattern, from cotton/spandex rib knit to viscose/nylon/spandex ponte jersey. Rib knits are a favorite pairing for this pattern as they work perfectly for the body as well as the bindings!

It is recommended to use a fabric with a small amount of spandex or elastane to help the recovery after wearing, basically it will help to retain the correct shape! You can use a fabric without spandex or elastane but just be aware that the fabric may stretch out throughout the day and you may wish to wash and re-shape the garment each wear. Sweater knits can be a beautiful option if you wish for a more relaxed fitting garment. They tend to be bulkier and have a bit more drape, but also typically do not hold their shape as well - which can be used to your advantage if you prefer a less fitted style. Knits without any spandex or elastane will probably need the straps shortened at the designated point in the sewing process. You may also choose to pair a sweater knit with a standard 2x1 or 1x1 cotton spandex rib for the binding pieces! This will help to hold the style lines of the straps, while letting the rest of the garment fall as it wishes.

If you choose to use a heavyweight knit, like a double knit ponte, the garment may feel tighter around the body. If you choose to use a lightweight knit, like a plain jersey, the garment may feel looser around the body. You can choose your size according to the weight and stretch percentage of your fabric. Heavyweight = size up, lightweight = size down.

FIT RECOMMENDATIONS

The Nice Tri Tank - Flare Dress is meant to be fitted throughout the upper body and then gently fall away from the body starting just above the waist flowing out into a flared skirt. Overall, due to the nature of the design, the fit is forgiving because it relies heavily on the stretch in the fabric to wrap snuggly around the upper body. The shoulder straps are intended to cover a standard bra strap, if applicable. The horizontal third strap is intended to wrap across the mid-to-upper chest with the bottom edge of the strap hitting at about the armpit crease. More exact adjustments for the straps will be made during the sewing construction process, so don’t worry too much about nailing those measurements in the size selection! The bottom edge of the center front cutout should land at about mid sternum height. The center back cutout falls a bit higher up on the body and is a slightly smaller hole. The shaping of the garment all comes from the center front and center back seams. These seams can easily be adjusted as you sew up your garment! Although going smaller as you sew it up is much easier than going bigger, so err on the side of caution if you’re worried about wanting the garment less fitted. You might choose to size up and take it in from there.

Your fabric choice will play a huge part in how the final garment fits, so you may end up needing different adjustments for different fabrics. Focus on the overall circumference measurements to get the right fit. The pattern is drafted with negative ease at the bust: roughly 8-9” (20-22cm). The exact amount of ease varies depending on your personal measurements within the range of each size. If you prefer your garments to fit tighter, choose more negative ease (go smaller). If you prefer your garments to fit looser, choose less negative ease (go bigger). If you are between sizes, size up or down according to your desired amount of negative ease. See fabric recommendations for more info on how fabric affects the fit.

SIZE GUIDE

Choose your size based on your full bust measurement. The Nice Tri Tank - Flare Dress is designed to be a fitted garment through the upper body, although the tightness will vary depending on fabrication. To achieve the intended fit, make sure to select the size closest to your personal measurements and size up if you are between sizes. The full bust measurement is the most crucial point of reference because the intricate detailing of the straps relies on the chest area being close fit to the body. There are designated points throughout the instructions to double check the strap lengths as you put your tank together, so don’t worry too much about strap length! Rather focus on garment circumference for size selection.

Compare your personal measurements to the finished garment measurements to determine your desired amount of ease. The intended fit is figure-hugging at the upper body, which translates to negative ease. The difference in your personal measurements and the garment measurements is made up by the stretch factor in your chosen material. The garment should flow gently away from the body from the waist down to the hem, which means positive ease at the waist and hip.

Fluffy and Nice Omegaverse
Format: Kindle
… this would have made 5 stars but for 2 reasons. A.) there were quite a few typos; misspelled words, missing quotations, “the his” mistakes, and various signs that maybe a proofread would do good. B.) the writing was quite textbook. Late blooming omega is struggling with her new self, finds a absurdly wealthy pack of alphas, every thing is almost insta-love but she resists, then decides to love herself and let everyone be happy. Rian was my favourite (obviously the author’s favourite too because he got the most page time) but I wish we could see more of his CEO side? He went to work maybe ONCE the entire time. Gray was supposed to be the “growly one” but he turned out to be puppy dog. Lucas was a genius brainiac doctor - but also super alpha with an aggressive hindbrain with a breeding k*nk?? And then there was no actual “breeding”?? Spice 3/5 - normally omegaverse books are super high on messy smut but this was tamer. Romance 3/5 - insta-love that was then resisted because of personal hangup’s Plot 2/5 - weird paced head hopping, showing the same scene from different POV’s that made me feel like it was 2 steps backward, 1 step forward. Humour 4/5 - there were a dozen lines that genuinely made me chuckle out loud Would have been five stars but the lack of proofreading and the predictable plot made me unable to get up to ADORED IT level - four stars is still and official ENJOYED IT, y’all. This isn’t a bad rating. The “Club Heat” has intriguing possibilities so I’m going to give the second one a shot.

Fantastic writing and non-stop action
Format: Kindle
This is a promising, fantastic beginning to what will be a 4-book series. Some readers may be content to read only the first 2 books, but I think you'll find that the story is so good that you'll want to keep reading books 3 and 4. Book 1 is about omega Elvana's introduction to the "Starling" brothers and their search for another missing person, Kelly. It's a bit of a rocky start, with deception and betrayal a key element. Hardly an auspicious beginning. Each member has their own path and purpose in the pack. Their interactions and the resulting narrative are so well-written that I found it difficult to put down. There is a cliffhanger that will have you reaching for book 2 as you finish, so make sure you have it on hand.

Fun read
Format: Kindle
I'm not really into mafia books but I love Roxy Collin's other series so I decided to give it a try. It had the same great romance, spice, swoon-worthy characters and exciting plot that are her signature. Arben was my favorite, although it was a bit sudden how quickly he changed from ignoring her to wanting to be pack. There were almost too many twists/layers of lies to keep track of but I'm looking forward to reading the other books. The only thing that detracted from the story for me was the need for a bit more proofreading. It was mentioned that Kelly is a female and male at different points, leading me to think she changed her mind at some point about the character's gender but didn't go back and edit it to align in all places. Like another reviewer pointed out, step siblings are different than half siblings. They are incorrectly referred to as step siblings because they (allegedly) share the same biological dad. There are a few other typos as well but those aren't a big deal.
