Nothing technically new to add since my first post on this pattern, but it's definitely become one of my favorite patterns of 2008. I did get a little creative with the bindings. I could've gone for solid brown, or even self-fabric, but I really wanted a bit of color contrast too.
Both fabrics are from Fabric.com. This, below, is the print used for the binding. A little fussy cutting and the yellow/brown print takes on a whole new look.
I'm pretty darn happy with this one. I love the splash of yellow, and the browns of both fabrics are a near-perfect match.
Fab-u-lous top! I LOVE the bindings!! Good call.
ReplyDeleteThat is a great top, Debbie. The binding is perfect.
ReplyDeleteI like the splash of color too! I have that knit. I'm waiting for it to warm up so I can do something with it.
ReplyDeleteI love that contrasting binding. Great top.
ReplyDeleteGreat combination of fabrics, and who doesn't love a quick and easy new top?
ReplyDeleteThe trim really makes this one special!
ReplyDeleteReally kewl top! But what I really like is how you used the contrast fabric. I saw that on fabric.com and couldn't get past its business so it's nice to see it in a new lite!!!
ReplyDeleteLove the top. As usual you are so clever! Glad to see you posting again, missed your posts.
ReplyDeleteOH yes! This is one of my favorites too. I've made 3 and want another but think I should move on to another pattern. I LOVE the bindings.
ReplyDeleteVery stylish. I just ordered this pattern and am eager to make it up.
ReplyDeleteI love it! Glad you're back too.
ReplyDeleteLove this top. Great job on the binding!
ReplyDeleteWhat a perfect match for the binding. It looks like it has circles on it to match the main fabric.
ReplyDeleteHappy to see you back posting, love the new items and your jacket review. Happy Tday.
ReplyDeleteBrown and mustard are so pretty on your complexion, and lovely at this time of year for those of us who can wear them! Love the groovy print ensemble. It reminds me of your coordinating print training grounds, PJs and scrubs. Hey Deb, I'm really glad you're back!!!
ReplyDeleteGlad to have you back.
ReplyDeleteYour bindings are so smooth and perfect. I envy your skill.
I know this comment is on an old post, but I just want to say that your choice of fabric was great! I LOVED the fabric and the binding. It's so great to see a patterened material that looks great!
