First garment of the year

The KS top is complete and I posted a review at PR.  This is my first project for 2011.  I also entered this in the PR fabric stash contest.

I really like the outcome of this top and being able to use the border with the stretch of the fabric.  Also not having to match stripes on the side seams!  Here are a few photos of the completed top

  7. I have the exact same top. I bought the fabric from Fashionista Fabrics. However, I live in western Canada so I doubt we will ever meet wearing this same top.
