I made three dresses a fortnight ago! And lucky me, I had enough fabric left over to cut out three sleeveless tops for summer. So here’s the first one – New Look 6470, view B.
You don’t get much easier than this! Two pieces, with the cowl self-lined. I made the size 12, which is pretty snug – I slowed down on my gym routine over winter and it shows a little.
Then there’s Jalie 2787. I’m really getting my money’s worth from this pattern!
The construction is all done with the overlocker and hems with a twin needle on my regular machine. It gives a nice finish but wouldn’t a coverstitch machine be lovely!
Gee, you really don’t get much styling with these photos, do you! No lipstick, hair barely brushed, no accessories – but I have to make the most of having a willing photographer whenever one is available! Lastly we have Jalie 2804. I’ll start with the back (see what I mean about a little snug after winter):
I pretty much used up every scrap of each fabric to make these tops! I know they’ll all get lots of wear. And with no sleeves, they were super fast to make.
