Burda Style For people who sew
Description
My second Tova (by Wiksten patterns). The construction went so much more smoothly the second time around and the top has a better finish all round. I made this version quite a bit bigger than the last and it is very comfy. Are two Tovas enough? Probably not.
As I had quite a bit of the fabric left I also made a top for my baby girl. The pattern is ‘simply sweet tunic top and blouse’ by Wink designs. I had to widen the neck to get it comfortably over her head but a lovely pattern nonetheless. I will make more of these.

yes, it’s a winner! Though I haven’t actually had the guts to leave the house in matching shirts yet.
