Top almost completed

I have only brief moments of time to sew thus far this holiday weekend.  I basted shoulder and side seams this AM to test the fit.  Perfect!  I was happy about this as various types of knits behave differently.  This is stretching appropriately.  I attached the front and back at shoulder seams as well as attaching the neckband.  I set up coverstitch machine to use around neckline and elsewhere for hemming. 

Next attach sleeves, sew side seams and hem!!

I will then set up machines for the eShurg.  I have a few other ideas for tops to at least get cut out this weekend if not sewn.

Off to brunch!  Later.
