This is my first of many Sorbetto Tank projects. The pattern is available for free from the wonderful Colette Patterns and is fabulous for customizing! For this top, I made my own bias tape from a sweet floral cotton calico and used the same fabric to make my own buttons, which are sewn to the pleat.
I can just see myself in this tank on a picnic in the countryside, sipping lemonade!
I used a nubby, unbleached cotton for the body of the tank and a printed cotton for the bias tape and buttons.

Very nice Sorbetto! I have downloaded the pattern and really need to make one of these as they look so comfortable and not too difficult to construct. Hope to see more of your creations. Happy Sewing!
