I’ve been needing some long sleeve tops lately so I wanted to make a couple that were plain but had some detail. Some how while I was looking up princess seams on the net and I came across this lady’s blog, http://theprincessseam.blogspot.com/. And wowo this lady is a SERIOUS pro at sewing she must sew all day!!! Anyway, I took inspiration from her great ruched top to make my own and made changes to the neckline – adding a turtle front and a lovely scoop neck back.
