Very easy quick top from Burda mag 3/2009 pattern 138, I decided to make it longer into a tunic to wear with leggings. I love the way you secure the gaping left side with a brooch to get the unusual shaped neckline. I ribbed and top stitched the neck instead of binding it and hemmed the arms – quicker and easier, I’m currently sewing quick and easy things as my 3 month old daughter is not a huge fan of sleeping during the day!!
