This top reminds me of liquorice all-sorts sweets because of the colours. Very simple top, I made it quickly last weekend because I’m feeling like I don’t have any loose clothes to wear as my tummy grows. Black bands at the top and bottom with stripe fabric in the middle
Black stretch cotton, stripe stretch fabric
me – for cutting out strips of fabric – so easy!!

Wow I love it! Might have to try and work that out. Did you just do it as rectangles? Or is the bottom slightly wider than the top?
