Hot Patterns Weekender Sunshine Top

Finally the Hot Patterns Weekeder Sunshine top. First let me tell you, this photo is horrible and i will try to get a better one soon. This is my third try at this top. The first top was a muslin out of some Spandex silky print from Joann Fabrics. It was a disaster,mainly becuase it was a spandex and not a knit. The second try was with some Knit fabric i picked up at Joann Fabrics Red Tag Table. When i made up the top it was too small, and i would say it was becuase the knit did not have enough stretch. So the third try was with Joann Fabrics Matte Jersey Knit from the Wild Intiutions line. This fabric has a 4 way stretch and so it was great for this pattern. This is a superb TNT. This great piece whips up in about 3 hours and is a great weekend project.
