My friend from 'down the road' and I went on a trip to Birmingham two weeks ago.
Another friend had told me about another fabric shop which I'd not heard of before so that was where we went to first. Barry's Fabrics. Almost as soon as I walked in I spotted 'just the right' fabric for a winter top.
I didn't take any pictures of it before I pinned the pattern on or while I was working on it either. Not sure why but I think it was because I just wanted to get on with it!! So, here's the finished top.
I must say it's a lovely warm 100% cotton and I'm hoping that we may go back in a few weeks although I did buy another piece of fabric to make another top. Here's the first one done!!
Buttons too! ( that means buttonholes). Lovely colour, is it cooling down yet?
ReplyDeleteGreat top!! :)
ReplyDeleteI love it! It's such a pretty shade of blue!
ReplyDeleteButtons yes but buttonholes no!!! I've cheated and put press studs on for now. I thought of velcro but decided to try these first. Not cooling down much but it's started to.
ReplyDeletePretty shirt and love the material!!
