Inspiration...Silky Tee

I know the drawing point on this top was the color but look at the simplicity of it:



This is the Silky Sea Silk Blend Tee by Nic + Zoe.  Price tag: $118.00.  Want a closer look?  Head over to the Nordstrom website.

Really in sewing terms you can get easier than 2 pattern pieces.  This top also has a binding at the neckline which could add a little bit to the complexity.  Note that when you zoom in that this isn't a true "V" neck.  The binding is sewn in the round and the typical "v" stitch isn't there.

I did a look around for fabric of this type - silk and viscose blend.  I found a little bit but nothing patterned like this. Most likely you could find a poly blend or a rayon blend with this sort of pattern on it.

As for the pattern, I found this one:


This is Butterick 6221.  It is a lifestyle pattern and gives you lots of options.  Even the largest size takes less than 2 yards to make this little top.

Hope your inspired to sew!

Happy Stitching!
