A summer top

 I've made this cotton top on my sewing machine, without the aid of a pattern, I think it's come out brilliantly!
 I used an existing top as a size guide, but this top is basically made of rectangles - a large one for the back, and 5 panels for the front. It is slightly shaped around the armholes, and it's slightly a-line overall.
I'm not sure about this steppy neckline so I might turn the corners under to make a curvier edge.

    The fabric is lovely, and of course the top is too. It really suits you as well.

    You'll have to start doing commissions, you've got a real talent there.

    It's really cute! I like the steppy neckline--it's different-looking and makes the pattern even more your own!
