Re: Design 09 Violet Rose Tunic
This is the third incarnation of this top, and I think I might have enough now. this one I left off the seam allowances from the bodice, only used one layer on the bodice, and did binding on the neckline. Oh, and I used the gorgeous hand dyed stella from Lisa at Crafty Mamas.

I think the lack of bulk on the bodice by eliminating the facing layer and binding the neckline instead, really benefits the top. I have ended up with it a tiny smidge tight on the arms and sleeve, but its a firm stretchy fabric, so it doesn't bother me.
I am really happy that despite being absolutely dying with this cold, I have had a series of successes with my sewing.
