Description
The Tara is a very cute shirt with so many possibilities! I made a trial Tara out of an old pillowcase. It looked pretty good, and I was anxious to make a wearable Tara! Alas the only fabric I could find that was suitable was this pink, purple and white check (I have a sneaking suspicion that the fabric was remnants of an old table cloth!). The limited amount of fabric meant I had to omit the sleeves and lower the back. I think it looks a bit like a hanky, but it’ll be quite ok to wear over a bikini at the beach!
Material Notes
cotton check, light pink ribbon, elastic
