This is the second finished (well almost…) garment I have made. My goal for the year is to make at least one garment per month, and nothing is more fitting (get it?) for the month of February than a pink Valentines Day top! This was my first try using single fold bias tape and I feel like it went pretty well. It was also my first time using casing for an elastic waistline. All I have to do to finish is add in a button and loop for the back neckline. I used Simplicity Pattern 1693.
