joan said... Jennifer, Great looking top. It looks like it has a lining, if not how is the neckline finished?? Can't wait for the Pucci print to get done.
By the way I haven't started on my fabrics from BABES.
Wow, it looks even better on you. Hubba, hubba, or something like that. You just posted the pic, while I was posting my comment. 5/7/07 0:22 AM
Jennifer shaw said... Thanks joan! It is just a turned under hem, but I am tempted to do a self fabric strip trim around the neckline and the armscye. I think that might look pretty sharp.
My only qualm is that the hem rolls up! Is there anything that I can do about that? I have a camisole top that does the same thing and it drives me crazy. 5/7/07 0:28 AM
joan said... Jennifer, let me think on the hem rolling up problem, and I will e-mail you.
Some kind of stretchy type of stabilizer is needed, I believe.

Debbie Cook said... Looking forward to the new pic! Reading through the comments ... the hem rolls up because the bottom of the top is too small to go around your hips and so it's trying to find a place to land where you are narrower. If you want the top to sit lower/longer, you'll need more width at the bottom. 7/19/07 6:39 PM
