I took advantage of the beautiful afternoon and no running around right after school to take a few pictures of a top that's been finished for over a month. I had plans to photograph the top shortly after finishing it (with a stunning location to boot) but I had forgotten to put my memory card back in the camera. One of those Doh! moments. I'm not the only one who has those, right?
pattern: Oliver + S Ice Cream Top
size: 8
fabric: Tula Pink - Prince Charming - Dandelion in Coral
Not much to say about this pattern that hasn't already been said. This is the fourth time I've sewn it and I love the way it looks. It pairs perfectly with a pair of shorts (Sandbox Shorts here) or jeans. My younger girls prefer knit tops but will happily wear an Ice Cream top.
The only thing I did 'differently' was to cut the yoke on the cross grain. I had slightly less than a yard of the Tula Pink print left and by the time I got around to cutting the yokes out there wasn't much left. I like it! The direction change is subtle but it's there. I think it adds a little additional interest.;)
