While at PR Anniversary in Austin weekend, April had a trunk show for her new business Fabricker and I bought some lovelies including this luscious silk/cotton/rayon knit. It feels so good against my skin! I turned it into another Jalie sweetheart neckline top (2794). I made one a few years ago and loved it but it was a bit snug then and since I've put on a few pounds since, I decided to go up a few letters for this one. I overestimated and it turned out way too big. I played around with it until I finally got the right fit and added long sleeves. I still love this pattern and would love to make a few more.
Two down from my marathon cutting session; Nine to go!
Great looking top, Bonnie, don't you just love finding wonderful fabric?
ReplyDeleteThat is adorable. The fabric sounds lovely - I have a silk knit tee that I made years ago and love. g
ReplyDeleteI find a bit of silk added to any fabric makes it that much more wonderful! Love that top on you - very flattering neckline!
ReplyDeleteNow that's love! Great top.
ReplyDeleteWhat a flattering top!! I swear, if ever I learn to sew, I'm going to just go back through your posts and make a list...
ReplyDeleteI agree this is a great looking top. There are fabric like this we wish we would have bought more in different prints. I hope you can find more of the same type. I really like the glitter top you made as well. The pattern is simple and so great. I will have to look for it.
ReplyDeleteVery cute apron and a fabulous top, Bonnie! Wanted to stop by to say hello and welcome to the Sew-Along!
