Next up-Butterick 5922 knit top

Completed V8742 version 2.  I really love this pattern.  Two versions are enough for now!

Up next

This is my new purchase taking advantage of the Memorial Day sales at Butterick.  


This is fabric from my stash and has been around for a very long time.  I acquired this the last time ASG National Conference was held in D.C.  and I think that was 2005.  The underlay will be a cream/tan knit fabric acquired from EOS several years ago also.


I wanted you to see the scalloped edge of the fabric.  This will be the bottom of the top and perhaps the bottom of the sleeves, hoping that I can squeeze everything from the yardage on hand.

The pattern fitting process is in progress.  Completed adjustments on the front bodice and front underlay piece.  I wanted to have this top for a dinner out at the beach.

  1. Great looking dress and I love that lace . I just finished a dress that I haven't blogged yet out of lace with scallops which I used for the hems as well.

  2. Super dress. You're so (sew) productive and I'm so jealous. One day I'll be set up again to sew.
