I had some large triangular scraps left over from cutting the bias strips for
this dress....just perfect for making a bias-cut camisole. I like to try out camisole patterns as they come along. One day I'll get around to drafting just what I want. In the meantime, this is Vogue 2941, which is a DKNY pattern. It is pretty straight forward with just one piece for the front and one for the back. I like the wide placement of the straps, but would prefer seaming under the bust. Although I am wearing it with a skirt today, mostly, I think it will be for sleepwear. I wasn't going to show it to you at all, but it is the precursor to a more exciting project that I have coming up...stay tuned!
How satisfying to use up the scraps so beautifully. What a pretty top, surely it can make a few more public appearances!
ReplyDeleteThat's some pretty sleepwear :-) Can't wait to see that more exciting project!
ReplyDeleteA pair of solid color pj pants would make that a beautiful lingerie set.
ReplyDeleteIt's really quite lovely and summery - doesn't have to be just sleepwear. It's always so rewarding to make something so pretty from scraps - always feels like a freebie!
