Abstract print top - Vogue 8771


vogue 8771
I have made this top 3 times before for the PR wardrobe challenge - here -  and love it and wore it a lot but the jersey used is a bit to much for the summer that is finally here so I decided to do it again in a lighter fabric.  This is such an easy pattern and it goes together so fast that I really love it and will probably be lots of this one in the future as well.
I really love the print and the black neck binding looks really neat but the fabric is not as stretchy as the previous one and it seams it isn't as comfortable and I made it a size down as well now that I don't have that big belly. So I will probably do a new one soon.

Fun bat wings tops - Vogue 8771

Vogue 8771
   I am a big fun of bat wings tops. Most of them are easy to sew and easy to wear. At least for me. I have this Vogue pattern for a while and always wanted to try it. So now was the time for it.
   I went with size M for a more lose fit so I can get my big belly into it and maybe use them after as well. I ended up doing 3 of this in different lengths starting from view A. After the 1st one I found that the sleeve was very comfortable like this and didn't wanted to try cuffs. The pattern is very simple : just 3 pieces:
   To all this I only added neck binding. I find it looks better with it and also had some concerns after reading some previous reviews mentioned issued with a very wide or gaping neckline.
   Is not the most very faltering top for my current shape but I feel good in them and I love the colors and prints. I do hope I will be able to use them after I deliver.

I will probably sew more of this in a smaller size in the fall.
My tops look quite decent with a skirt as well:
