A much quicker project this time: a simple tank top made with New Look 6068 and the Most Precious thrifted chintz cotton interlock
There was more than enough of this fabric left to make sleeves, and I intended to when I started cutting, but, once I got the front cut, my Vision™ for it resolved into a tank top.
I cut the front and back in size 10 and made ribbing strips 2" by 18" for the neckline and by 12" for the arms.
The neckband could have been a bit longer, but the arm openings worked nicely. I knew using a 2" width would result in very narrow ribbing, but that also seemed Right™ for his project.
I folded and stitched the hem by using the magnetic seam gauge, no ironing (of course.)
Stitched twice to mimic a coverstitch.
