Burda World of Fashion issue 04-2007, pattern 125B.
This was a fun top to make, and as it has no sleeves you don’t need much material. There were a number of cute shirts using checks, plaids, madras and gingham in this issue of Burda World of Fashion.
I like how this turned out, the pattern is well-drafted and I’ll probably make a couple more. I had to make alterations as I am short but it was pretty easy to adjust the pattern.
Cotton gingham.

Oh amazing! I have that magazine! It’s just like the original but better yet because it’s in red, it turned out so great! I love the fabrics, it is two different fabrics, right? You call it gingham? I would call it Vichy, am I wrong? Anyway, great work!

I have this pattern too – it’s so cute, and such a nice fit. I made one out of silky fabric but it’s not the right colour so I’ll have to do another one – probably out of gingham. Lovely work!

How could I miss this cute top…I didn’t click on the photo because I only saw the tech. drawing.
Now I know what to do with gingham. Cool!Aug 30, 2007, 06.51 PMby emilykate
Jennifer Elizabeth, thanks! Yep, the bias is on the armhole edges and the hem.
Elisa_Kawaii thankyou for the compliment and suggestion, I think I WILL do another one with spots, I’m thinking white spots on black contrasted with black spots on white. I love your avatar by the way!!

I just love gingham combinations! You could make another one with polka dots, in different sizes of balls. Cute!

That is so cute! I love your fabric choice, and how you used differently sized gingham for the neckline and the edges, and it’s all so well put together that I can’t help but adore it.
