Another spring shirt in a beautiful spring color.
I used the straight of grain front layout, as View A is cut on on the bias to have a great stripe feature.
I did stitch the center front down much lower than the pattern indicated. I wanted the cute tie but not to show any belly.
The sleeves have a seam down the center with a sleeve front and back. Also, the flounce is a front and back piece, with the flounce higher in the middle. I did do a french seam on the seams for the flounce, I didn't want the stitching to show.
The fabric came from Style Maker Fabrics last year but Michelle has great shirtings and challis and lawns and voiles to make this top
The back has a keyhole and I used a small piece of elastic for the button. Easy to finish and to fit through the button
Here is why I finished the flounce seams, a bit of breeze and up the flounces fly.
This top was easy to make with trendy sleeves.
What sleeve trends do you want to make this spring?
Fabulous color and style!
