You'd be forgiven for thinking you've seen this top before a I've made the Frankie top by Tilly & the Buttons twice before in the same Chicacheetah fabric from Guthrie and Ghani, but in royal blue and light blue. I need to come up with a plan to use up the scraps of the three colourways.
Having made the top before, you'd think I'd know what to do but I made all the mistakes, lots of unpicking and I even sewed my label into the seam for the sleeve and not the body of the top. However, it is now finished. Disappointingly the fabric is from two print runs so the back has a greyer tinge and the front is pinker. This was highlighted on the website, but I chose to buy just one extra metre.
My resident photographer is back from the UK tonight having visited Matt and Lizzie, so my photos are very basic today. Next project is either trimming and binding a scrappy quilt or making a dress to wear on our forthcoming holiday.
