i would love to see some pin or and other art stuff to :). i just starting making my first top by hand. :) and i think after my first try i will want to do more. but it would be easier if i had pins to hold peices together. i been useing other pins the kind you open it and poke it through item then close it.
well i got 2 yards of fabric on sale and one thread of black that was not on sale :(. but it all came to 5 dollars and some change and thats all i had to spend. i got home looked over top i decided to try to make and it says it needs a zipper. so guess need zipper. and some better scissors to cut with. it think material and i still had trouble..took forever to get two pieces cut out.
ok it says "press under 5/8' (1.5cm) on left back opening edge and 1/2' (1.3cm) on right back opening edge. pin right back edge to zipper tape, placing pressed edge close to zipper teeth and tab end of zipper 3/8' (1cm) below upper edge of opening. turn upper end of zipper tape over seam allowance. baste. pin and baste left back edge to zipper tape, lapping left back 1/8' (3mm) over right back. turn upper end of zipper tape over seam allowance. baste. stitch as basted, using an adjustable zipper foot. sew a hook and eye at neck edge when garment is finished
