Well-I am a little flustered with my progress! The fabric I am using is very similar to the inspirational top, the fabric content is probably not the same at all.
I am using a semi sheer rayon that was a pain to cut out as it was a little slippery. Not difficult to sew, just more fiddly than I prefer to sew.
I was going to use the sleeves with elastic at the hem but that was frustrating for me and after two attempts to get the elastic just right using a casing, I gave up.😒 I had enough fabric to cut out the sleeves with the ties and there is where I stopped for now. It should not be that difficult to insert elastic into a casing but trying to then stitch down the remaining edge was frustrating and turned out to be unkind to the fabric.
Back to the sewing room after a short break.😏
