BBW Yoke Top

Description

This is a built by wendy pattern.

The only mods on this pattern were I did one gather in the middle of the back instead of 2 under each shoulder, and I shortened the tieback. I got this fabric on sale and the whole thing, thread and pattern and fabric included, cost me roughly 5.50 to make.

Materials

cotton woven apparely fabric, thread

I LOVE your top!! the style really suits you and the fabric is stunning (can't believe it was so cheap!) Is the pattern from one of her books?

experimenting with pleats

You look really pleased with yourself in that first picture, as you should, this is a really cool top. I have only just discovered " Built by Wendy" and haven't got any of her patterns yet but after seeing this I am going to have to invest!!

having a blast perusing this site.

Thanks so much everyone! It was my first top I made for myself. I didn't expect it to turn out near half as good as it did- let alone have it fit! The pattern is one of the simplicty ones- its 3964 and you can get it at your local craft store i'm sure.

Cool! Wondered what that pattern would look like in a print. I made it in plain green. Nice colours and congratulations on the bargain!
