Neutral Belcarra
.jpg)
I made another Sewaholic Belcarra. This time as the pattern intended. The fabric I chose is an op shop rayon. It isn't in my preferred colours but it only cost $2 so a perfect way to test sizing. This time I made the version with the shoulder pleats and make it to a size 6 as per previous versions. 
There really isn't a lot to say about this top except it is big everywhere. Next time I will go down to at least a size 4, maybe even a size 2. Once I perfect the sizing and fit, it will become my tnt for spring and summer.
The tucks on the shoulders are a really pretty detail on a classic top. This definitely looks like one to turn into a TNT. The fit even looks like it might be ok if left untucked. The garden looks lovely too!
ReplyDeleteI love the gardens at this time of year. Everything is so fresh and green before the heat hits and browns everything off.
DeleteI tried the top untucked and it is really big. I would say tunic like but with shaping it just looks off.
Just beautiful - simple lines, nice fabric.
ReplyDeleteThank you! The simple lines of this top are what drew me to it.
DeleteBeautiful, What fabric did you use? greetings
ReplyDeleteI think it is rayon but not sure as it came from the op shop.
DeleteI agree, this is definitely a TNT pattern. The fit is a bit on the big side. I just made it into a dress and it is big all over, but works with a belt. The pin tucks look great :-)
ReplyDeleteIt is big isn't it! Looking forward to seeing your dress.
