Happy Summer Top

This top, along with the summer dress, is from the Japanese craft book ISBN978-4-579-11054-4. This cute dotty top should have been a breeze, but I was exhausted from all the other birthday preparations and had to use my seam ripper more times than I'd like to admit. At one point I sewed on the skirt piece backwards. It was tough.
But see how darling this tie detail is in the back! And the print! Oh, how I love this fabric. I got it at the local fabric store and it's Japanese.

And here's my pint-sized model, hard at work again:

Great sewing adventures! Love this top especially. I wish I had a compliant model who could stand up!
Made a cheesecake on the weekend for the first time ever. After visiting the biscuit section of the supermarket I discovered we do have McVities in Australia, but I used Dutch Spice Cookies, which made the crust turn out SO yummy. You can read about my appalling cooking adventures at my blog!
