Simplicity 1355 - Tie Tank Tee Jumper (Is what I call it).

I have fallen in love with this pattern.  It is so darn versatile.  I have made a version of this pattern three times already, and I think I got a couple of more versions to go before I am done.  This is the first I've made for myself, and I am so pleased with the fit.




The fabric I have had for quite some time.  Not really sure what to do with it.  I almost cut it earlier in the year to make a Maxi Dress, but changed my mind. Glad I did.  I absolutely love how this came out.  I added 2 inches to the bodice length to account for my bust and to give it more of a blousing effect.    

Happy Sewing!
