in stitches

It's been quite a while since my sewing machine saw the light of day, but some fabric spied in the Liberty sale and a dire lack of summer tops were inspiration enough to dust it off. Very loosely based on this pattern I adjusted the length of the bodice section to make a hip skimming top, and changed the neckline completely, adding random pleats. I'm pretty happy with the result and will certainly be making another, with improvements of course... just as soon as I can get to Liberty again... C
