New Look 6807

I made this top for my daughter on the weekend. It should've been a quick & easy number but wasn't without its problems. The fabric is allegedly polyester but is so fine it feels like cotton. So fine it was hard to sew especially the binding around the neck. But it's gorgeous and should be nice to wear in the warm weather. Lucky, cos I have more to make myself something. :)

I made a size 12 based on DD's high bust measurement. This pattern has a lot of ease so no need for the usual FBA. If I ever make this for myself, I will definitely need the FBA.

Pretty top and even though the ties at the back are pretty, can understand why you would leave them off.
