McCalls 6751: Easy Peasy Cris Cross Back Tank


Just a quick easy peasy criss cross (is criss cross a word?) tank top.  It was really easy to make.  From cut to finish about an hour and a half.  I ran out of bias tape about two inches from the beginning.  I also lowered the neckline about an inch and used a 3/8 seam allowance instead of a 5/8 which the pattern called for.  This was a cotton remnant that I found at at FabricWarehouse in Atlanta when I was there in April.

I plan to make it again in a black more flowy fabric to go with Jeans.




Happy Sewing!
