In anticipation for summer, I started working on summer tops. I had a pattern for an split back top, years ago, but when moving I decided to clean house and donated all my "outdated" patterns. Little did I know, I would give anything for them now. But I figured, how hard could it be to split a tee shirt in the back. So I took Butterick 5493 view C and split the back open, I added a little flare and omitted the ruffle in the front.
As usual, I did a rolled hem, I love this feature on my serger, it's so easy to do and looks nice and neat. I can't wait for a hot day to wear this top!
Cute Jamie, and this will be fun to wear. Are you pairing it with denim?
ReplyDeleteAbsoluteley! I'm thinking dark denim!
