Linen Top With Lace Applique
I planned to make a linen top with lace applique for my entry to "Sew Recreate The Look" challenge hosted by Jen and Sharlene on Instagram last month but couldn't make it on time. I finished the top on 7th May and I only managed to take pictures today. This top is also for my entry to "Magam Sewalong" - April Amigas challenge hosted by Sue , Suzy and Helene on Instagram, I got the lace fabric from my friend Ana Maria two years ago and I think this top matches the theme. The top design was copied from Pinterest, link here and the fabric was a linen from my stash. I lined the top with lightweight cotton fabric in off-white color. For the pattern, I used my self-drafted pattern. I modified my basic top sloper into the design I want. As shown below. I changed the side ties fabric into cotton shirting because the linen was a little hard to tie together, not so nice. The sewing progress involved a lot of pinning
