Finally, a top!

Here is the first item I have managed to photograph from my last sewing spree. I still need to get shots of the second top, skirt and belt, but baby steps...


I am pretty happy with this, although the fit is not ideal. It is ok with a belt, or tucked in but otherwise it is a little big. My measurements are all over the show with this pattern maker, I am literally three different sizes according to my bust, waist and hips which is a little annoying, but I know next time I make this that I need to grade down a size at my waist to get a better fit. But I think the keyhole neckline is really cute, although it was a tad fiddly.

This fabric is a really unusual colour, a really subtle lime green (??), that is really hard to photograph but that I think is lovely.

The pattern was the Colette Sencha and the fabric is from Tessuti.
