  I made an easy make-up zipper pouch using leftover fabrics and was happy with the result. The final size was 26 cm x 12 cm.

Black Lace Top

Black lace top layered over undershirt is eye-catching and fabulously feminime, that's why I wanted to make this top so badly. And yes! I made it. I planned to made this top for palette-challenge-ss2012. Not only this lovely top but I made a dress with the same fabric. I will publish my dress on later post.

This top has gathered short sleeve, extended button for the waist line (this is my idea to created better waist line), and round neckline. The pattern is selfdrafted pattern by me. I used 1 yard black lace, same colour thread and black buttons.

For the gathered sleeve, I just slash the basic sleeve pattern in three and added 1.5 inch. Gather with hand stitching first before use the sewing machine.

For the neckline, I created the round neckline. I think the round neckline work best for my face:)  I used neck line facing from the same material, finished with hand stitching.

That's it everyone! Very simple style top but really beautiful (especially for me.. ) I will continue to posting my black lace dress as soon as possible.
Happy sewing!
