It goes great with my $11 knit skirt that I bought off the WalMart clearance rack. I will definitely use this pattern again if I can remember what I did to make it fit!

New Look 6901
I've had this New Look 6901 pattern for a while now and decided to try it out with a yard of rayon/lycra knit that I purchased at Joann Fabrics. I thought the pattern might be a little too fitted for my taste so I made the mistake of cutting a size larger. I almost threw it in the garbage after the first try-on. It was too low cut and too large in the neckline. I decided I would go ahead and sew it up and give it away. After fiddling with it a bit and cutting down to the size I should have used in the first place, it actually turned out okay. It's a very quick top to sew up. I made most of it with the serger and coverstitch machines.

ReplyDeleteYour 'fiddling' paid off, this top looks great...
ReplyDeleteYou look lovely in this very pretty top. Hope you figure out what you did to make it fit so well since this is a keeper pattern.
ReplyDeleteThe top is beautiful, and the color looks great on you. I'm glad you were able to make it work out.
ReplyDeleteThis is one of the patterns I've also had for a while that I'm going to give a try for this year. Your version is very pretty and I'm glad your fiddling around worked out!
