Surplice top2

Learn It

This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
Sewing With Knits: 5 Wardrobe Essentials »

Difficulty:

Category: Sewing

Type of item: Clothing

For: Women

Style: Casual, Eco-Friendly, Cute


Materials

4 different, gently used tees

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

I made this out of 4 different gently used tees/shirts. I had to tweak the pattern for my long-ness of upper body, but love this pattern now that I have it sized to fit me. So even though it doesn't fit the mannequin so great, it fits me wonderfully. I can't wait to wear it!

I loved the Craftsy class with Meg and really like using clear elastic now. Thanks again, Meg!
