You are so charming and talented. Can't wait to make this top. Even though I am an intermediate sewer, I love making quick cute tops and know this one will get a lot of compliments. Thank you!!!
I've just found this on you tube, and have been sorting my cloth fabric stash, I think I might give this top a go with some fabric I have, fingers crossed it looks as lovely as yours x regards sandy x
I've loved your tutorials on create and craft tv for ages. Please allow me to say you were lovely before you lost weight, now you are gorgeous. So glad I've found your you tube channel.
This is brilliant. I make childrens clothes but never make adult sizes.... i hate commercial tissue paper patterns and don't know how to adjust them to fit me. I can certainly make this though..... I'm going to have a go at this. Thanks Sarah. xxx
Hi just started to view your RUclips show. I have found it very good and easy to follow. I have an overlocker which collects dust. Please could you make something using an overlocker. Ie a top or a skirt
Thank you for this very detailed and easy to understand tutorial. I absolutely love your fabric choices and this top is very flattering. Also, thank you for the information about overlocking. I have a brother machine and will be doing this to my edges from now on. Not only is this a time saver, but the seams looknice and neat as well. So many tutorials refer to a serger which I do not own. I am excited about making this top. Hope it turns out well. I will try your top stitching method as well. I'm not a dressmaker but a lot of videos seam the channel from the wrong side of the fabric. What is the difference? Have a great weekend. Julie
Hi Julie - that is a very good question. I stitch my channel from the right side because the top of a stitch line on a machine is always neater than the bobbin thread stitch. So basically when something is going to be seen, we "top stitch" (stitch from the top). I hope that helps.
I’m so sorry sarah i had to laugh. As much as I’m engrossed in what your doing i had to chuckle at how you concentrate on sewing. My husband says i make faces and your the same. I love the top tho. I could imagine extending the top of sleeve so i could wear a good bra. Top old for off the shoulder.
I have the same facial expressions when sewing. I had my hubby watch you sewing and he says we must be related! My ancestors were from England so we might share a wee bit of DNA possibly!

Great tutorial, Sarah, and I love your style - you look lovely. Xx
thankyou for the tutorials .would you please do one on how to make a simple dress.Thankyou
I will work on it :)
Using a overlocker for raw edges is brilliant and super quick time saver then fold over for hems
It certainly is, and I love mine, but not everyone has an overlocker so I wanted to keep it simple. x

Oohh - lovely. Can this be adjusted so it has a traditional neckline rather than off-the-shoulder?
Yes. Just pull the shoulders up. That's how i wear it when I cant find a strapless bra 😀.
This works better with longer sleeves. Sarah xx
And I have found it works better with a thinner elastic.
I’m so sorry sarah i had to laugh. As much as I’m engrossed in what your doing i had to chuckle at how you concentrate on sewing. My husband says i make faces and your the same.

That's my best 'concentrating face' :) Paul knows there no point talking to me when I have that face as I won't hear a word he says LOL!
