Fabric: Poly/Lycra that I'd purchased from Metro Textile Corp. during Pattern Review Sewing Excursion on Nov. 7th.
This Bold Paisley Double Border Print caught my eye amidst the fabric frenzy at Metro Textiles. The yellow/pink/black/cream combo is so bold & eye catching that I knew I had to have some of it and for just $5.00/yd. who can beat that.
Simplicity 2850 is the perfect pattern for the fabric, in that there are minimal pieces, therefore allowing continuity of the print. Sewed the body of the garment last night and attached the neck band this morning and tried it on and it fits nicely. Whats left are the sleeves and hemming the bottom. I am contemplating whether to do gathered sleeves or just a straight sleeve... so until then keep stitching.
I LOVE that print! Great top!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful print and top!
ReplyDeleteThat is a great look. I am such a pattern HOG! I have that pattern too, but have never made it. Your top is inspiring.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the fabric!! The pattern is really cute also!! I am super jealous of your trip to Mood. Can't wait to see what you decide to do about sleeves!!! (Did I mention I'm jealous . . .)
ReplyDeleteCute top!
