My all done posts feature every bit of a material/craft resource used to the very end (as in my last post!). Unusually, it was my turn to have the leftovers from my daughters project rather than the other way around.
I was hoping she would have some fabric left from her pattern review, the Stof fabric was so beautiful. There was just enough to squeeze out the front, back and straps of the True bias Ogden Camisole top.
This is the second time I have made this top. It has good bra coverage and a nice neckline however, I think I have it on the wrong way round in the photos judging by the little fold at the strap join, it doesn't do that if it is on properly! I may need to add a label to indicate the back to stop that happening again. I used some leftover green satin lining from my vintage coat to make the deep facings on the inside. A double all done!
I know it won't get lots of wear in the UK but for this week it has been perfect. On colder mornings it looks pretty with a cardigan too.
What do you make with small amounts of fabric?
Any good pattern suggestions?

Lovely, Jo.
ReplyDeleteI use leftover fabric for quilting or give it away. I am not so good at using up fabric... but improving xx
I made sure some of this was in my big quilt - I saved one square for it!
DeleteSo cute. I love the fabric and the lining is very clever and neat-looking. Looks nice with or without a cardigan.
ReplyDeleteClever girl! Once more I think your stitching efforts are a great success! 🤗
ReplyDeleteIt looks great! Your cardigan matches perfectly with the color scheme of your top:)
