I LOVE THIS TOP! It's done and I'll take pics & review it soon, but I just have to shout from the rooftops. Plus the Colts are beating the Patriots and I have to get back to the game to watch them finish the job.
In the meantime, here are a couple of pics showing some of the reasons I love this top. The gathering at center front is a great dart alternative, I'm always a sucker for empire lines, and the tie makes a great vertical line for my fluffy self. (You can click on the pics for bigger versions.)
As you can see, the tie actually comes up behind the neckline binding, and the gathering is adjustable so you can decide how low you want to go.
Hi Debbie! I can't belive it! I put the same BWOF top together in a knit muslin. I love your version and can't wait to see the finished product...great fabric BTW.
ReplyDeleteI've been meaning to PM you on PR with a question about this very pattern. How do you raise the neckline and not distort the front gathering? I may need to do a small FBA too.
TIA O guru of pattern manipulation!
That tops so cute... pictures, pictures!
ReplyDeleteDebbie, you are so fast. The top is beautiful, love the fabric.
ReplyDeleteVery cute! I like the fabric too!
ReplyDeleteHow cute is that! I can't wait to see it finished. It looks like a very flattering top for us busty fluffy girls.
