On 4/14/18 Reader Tammie L. Powell submitted before and after pics of her awesome take on the OMST and had this to say,
This is striped handkerchief linen. My process was to shorten the sleeves and only tacking down the sleeve cuff so it keeps a soft, relaxed look, remove the collar and bind the new neck opening with the excess sleeve fabric, refashion the bottom, add a few front pleats for fit and a few at the sleeve, just for texture. I also added a few additional button holes/buttons for modesty swapped out the original white buttons for an assortment of old brown buttons I had on-hand. I left the bottom edge raw but stay-stitched it twice. I plan to wear this with either white slips or skirts.
The difference in color is due to lighting.
-Thank you, Tammie! I love the sleeves and the pleats!
Reader and dear friend Donna Kay Lacey made her own OMST and has this to say: My twin Phyllis Lough-Williams inspired me to steal my son-in-laws shirt and create an OMS tunic. 
😄

Now I just need a TG sugar slip to go underneath.
-no laws were broken to produce this garment as permission was granted before any cutting took place.
-Thank you, Donna! I love the lack of sleeves and collar on this.
Thanks to both of your for sharing your OMSTs. I look forward to sharing more of your beauties! Your creativity is inspiring.

Before I go here is the action shot of my latest OMST as promised. Well, there are two. Sometimes I play around with my pieces to get an idea of what I have and what I need.
The outfit consists of my green OMST, a dark green knit dress, a wonderfully floral sundress, brown boots, my $2.00 Vera Bradley bag, and a beige skirt with great lace detail. The pink is a sheet. There WILL be pink Plinkas in my future.
I will be cutting out a gloriously pink Zelda this evening. What are you sewing today? Tell me in the comments!
