Another easy pattern
Newlook 6648, Have I mentioned how much I love few pieces patterns? they are great mojo boosters. I made this in less than 3 hours . I have read from other reviewers how wide the neck is, so I made these few modifications to mine.
- Reduced the front neck by 1.5" and the back neck 1"
- Lowered the front neck by 1" so that it can sit nicely on my chest
- Lengthened the bodice by 2"
- I stabilized the neck and the sleeve with interfacing, folded and sewed down, I did not use the neck band
I used Mate Jersey from my stash and it sewed up like breeze. This is a great and simple pattern, very flattering on every shape. Highly recommend
Enjoy the rest of your week.......
That fabric is fabulous, and turned in to a lovely top. I like those cut on sleeves.
