Rarely do I find fabric that I Must.Sew.Right.Now! This was one such piece.
Why? A print that looks like bulky stockinette!
The fabric is my nemesis; a soft rayon/lycra jersey. But who can resist an irresistible print? I had to have it even though it will stretch and become less lovely over time.I bought it on Saturday, and a few days later, it has become a completed top. I had enough fabric to cut out a tank top too, but it's still unassembled.
The pattern is one I mentioned a few posts ago - Jalie 2449, but altered to be less figure hugging. It's still plenty fitted.
It should be useful and comfy for a trip I'm taking this month.
Oh, such fun! Love that!
ReplyDeleteLove it. I have a silk twill woven printed with a bulky stockinette stitch and have been wondering what to do with it - lining a jacket seems too boring now!
ReplyDeleteI remember seeing a similar fabric and before I could decide, it was gone! This is so cool!
ReplyDeleteThis is fantastic!
