A unique top made using panels of reworked fabric scraps in complimentary sea-foam and mint tones. The main body of this boxy top uses a vintage black floral cotton and bound hems are in a black cotton.
Born from the desire to put my fabric scraps to good use, the fabric for the sleeves of this top is constructed using strips of complimentary colours and prints. Each strip is picked, cut and stitched together and then the sleeves are lined using the same fabric as the main body to hide all the rough seams. To reduce waste even further, I then use smaller triangles of this fabric to add panels and details totally unique to each top.
The cut of this top is a boxy shape, with a wide neckline bound with cotton bias binding. The hems are bound and topstitched with a wide contrast strip. The t-shirt length sleeves come to mid bicep and the length of the top comes to just below the belly button, working perfectly with high waisted trousers.
