V8688 Misses' Top View All Vogue Patterns
This pattern has three views, close-fitting tops cut on the grosswise grain, dolman sleeves, stitched hems. I made View B with three-quarter length sleeves with a scooped neck.
Top Front
Fabric: A ponte knit purchased from Hancock Fabrics a year ago. A medium weight knit that feels simply devine.
Sizing: XS-M; L-XXL. I cut a size Small (8-10).
Alterations: Minimal. 1.5" added to lengthen midriff on the Front; Lengthened back midriff 1" and added the additional .5" to bottom of back. Sewed 5/8" seams all around tapering in and and 1/2" seams from high waist to hip. Rather than purchasing bias tape, I made bias tape from the fashion fabric.
Like/Dislikes:
No dislikes. I really love this top and had envisioned this fabric as another top when I purchased it. I
plan on making View A in a stretch lace anyday now. lol . Here are some pics showing the overall view, wobble-stitching at the neckline. I have not decided to keep the length or shorten so there is no hem, just turned up where it would be sewn.
OK, I really like it. So glad I have that pattern already.
ReplyDeleteOh Faye, I love this top. I believe I'm more in love with the fabric. lol
