| New summer top |
I am thinking ahead to summer as the cold and snow keep coming here. I bought this fabric while at an ASG conference. I was planning on making a swing tank top with it to go with some peach shorts and some aqua shorts that I have.

| Fabric with snips in the selvedge |
I washed and dried the fabric and then when I was laying it out on the table I found I had to cut small snips in the selvedge edges to get it to lay flat.

| Pattern used |
In looking through my patterns, I didn't have enough yardage to make a swing top. I chose this pattern from McCall's because I liked the different hemline on it. I made version D (in the picture) but with short sleeves.

| Bias stay tape |
The cutting takes a little more time because the front is two different pieces so they need to be cut separately. I used this fusible bias stay tape to control the shoulder seam. A fairly quick and fun project to brighten my winter days.
