cindyann said... Very nice top. The neckline treatment is an interesting touch. How is this accomplished? I make a lot of tees and I'm always looking for ways to make them a little different. 5/7/07 9:04 AM

cindy-lou said... Ooooh, that's a slick trick with the twisted binding! A little detail that I'm sure takes a while, but is QUITE worth it. 5/7/07 11:50 AM
Re Becca said... very cute! I may have to dig this one out. Yours turned out very well, the twisted binding is a nice decorative touch. Do you think this would work well in wovens? 5/7/07 2:26 PM

Jane S said... This is lovely top on you, simple but distinctive. Thanks for that binding tip, I just saw it on a RTW T shirt in aboutique and thought it looked like a nice way to upgrade a simple shirt. 5/8/07 6:38 AM
Liana said... ReBecca, I think this would work just fine in a woven as well, but you would definitely want bias strips. 5/8/07 9:24 AM

Barbara at Cat Fur Studio said... Great style, and lovely fit! I like the hem shaping a lot. Thanks for going through the details of your fitting process. Very educational. 5/8/07 11:43 AM

marjenann said... What a really lovely top! Totally designer! 5/8/07 6:22 PM
AndSewOn said... Liana, I love that binding. I'm wondering -- how wide were your bias strips? And how did you finish the binding on the inside? Thanks so much. 5/8/07 10:24 PM
Liana said... AndSewOn, I cut them 2" wide, since that's the width of the ruler I was using, and it seemed to be okay. I didn't turn it under on the inside since it's a knit, and it won't ravel. 5/10/07 1:18 AM
