Look at those design lines! So clever!
This is a designer sweatshirt knit from Fabric Mart. The designer is Thakoon.
This is sold as panels. I purchased three panels for this top. Figuring out where to place the motifs was the most difficult part of the project but also the most fun!
The ribbed inserts were matched with a fabric from my stash. That was purely accidental, but a happy discovery!
I made my usual alterations: FBA, sloping shoulder adjustment and swayback adjustment.
That wonderful seaming and inserts are continued on the collar, side seams, and lower sleeves.
Make sure you get that collar seam matched precisely with the top's center seam.
Even though this fabric has embellishment, it was super easy to sew and work with.
I wore this to work today and received many compliments!
I will be making more of these, as soon as I find the right fabric combination!
Thanks for reading!
