This was a lovely quick top to run up to take away with me tomorrow.
When Sigrid, Clare and I were at the showing show last weekend we purchased this beautiful jersey knit that has spandex in it. The fabric felt wonderful to the touch, and promised to drape well for this style of top.
I am wearing it here with a very old Italian Marella suit, which has a classic timeless style.
I have a little of the fabric left over, not enough for a 2nd cowl neck, but probably a simple vest or camisole.
Both Sigrid and I purchased this fabric (in different colour ways) and based on how well this sewed up, I can't wait to sew the other fabric.
Now for my next item.
Catch you later

Beautiful top. Drapes perfectly. Enjoy sewing your other fabric.
ReplyDeletethank you very much - this fabric is beautiful I will need to look out for more of it.
DeleteLovely top and it drapes beautifully. Can hardly wait to see the next garment. Your are really cranking them out.
ReplyDeleteHave just learned of your blog and have bookmarked it. You are a fantastic sewer and I look foward to learning from you. Top looks great. Wonder what pattern number/Company it is from. Always looking for a cowl top that isn't too low and fits great.
ReplyDeletethank you for your lovely comments. This pattern is from a magazine called Prima (from the UK). It is one of their free patterns. This is becoming a TNT for me.
DeleteThe cowl top looks great with your suit. Nice pattern too.
ReplyDeletethanks Ruth, as mentioned before its a Prima magazine pattern.
DeleteDespite feeling not so well you've really had a fantastic sewing day. great tops, both of them. The fabric feels so fantastic, the fabric I bought might well be the next in my sewing queu.
ReplyDeleteSigrid, it will be worth going back to his shop just to buy some more of this stuff - I love it, and it feels wonderful on.
DeleteYour top looks wonderful, that fabric felt so soft and smooth I bet it is wonderful to wear.
ReplyDeleteAnother winning top to wear - you are on a roll at the moment! Love each and everyone you are making. You certainly have an eye for fabric/pattern combinations...
ReplyDeleteVery cute...love this fabric and beautiful with your classic suit. Hope you stay healthy for your upcoming travel...
