Description

Once I made the Burda WOF top with this bird fabric, I felt like doing something with the leftover piece right away. Using a pattern I’d made in Garment Designer for another purpose as the basis, I created a v-neck shell with pintucks in place of darts in the front. I’d had fun with the bias band button loops in the Burda top, so I used them again here. This was a fun top overall to make, actually. I just made it up as I went along, and it felt very creative, even though the results are quite simple.

    Again, that fabric is just great! The pintucks and the buttonloops really made the top unique and super cute. It looks so comfy, too — What a great summer staple!
