Cabarita from Cake Pattern

I have to say it, but I truly love all of my fabrics that I have in my store! They're just so beautiful. For example this fabric, it's a jersey but it's just so soft and nice. Not as thick and heavy as traditional cotton jersey, and not as flimsy and drapy as rayon/viscose jersey, but this cotton jersey is just Perfect!

And especially what's it perfect for? Well, about anything that you wanna make but when I saw this fabric it was screaming Cabarita to me! Cabarita is a cute t-shirt pattern from Cake Pattern. Though, I omitted the funny collar, since I don't find it as cute as the shirt.

Cake P really knows how to work its striped fabrics. Look at that back with the stripes coming down in a V-shape.

I couldn't be happier, and as with any other really good outcome - you want and you plan to do it again and again and....again. But, we all know how those grand plans are gonna work out.... But it would be nice to spend the summer days in this top.

Fabric you can find here, for only 115 kr/meter
(about 17,50 US$)

Wow! Look at those bazookas on my mannequin, she never breastfeed 2 hungry boys, that's for sure!

Årets färg är Smaragdgrön

En underbar grönfärg, riktigt smaragdgrön! Färgen är väl kanske det bästa med den här topen, även om jag tycker om den så i vissa vinklar har den en tendens att se lite väl hängig ut, kanske hade det sett bättre ut om man hade sytt den i mindre draperande tyg, något mittemellan. Denna är sydd i viscosjersey, men visst är det härlig färg?

Mönster: Burdastyle 1/2010, det går även att köpa separat från Burdastyles hemsida i pdf format. 
Tyg: Viscosjersey

Däremot, har jag upptäckt en sak den senaste tiden, och det är att axelsömmen hamnar väldigt ofta på mig lite off, bak på ryggen ca 2,5 cm. Vad innebär det? Att man har framåtroterande axlar eller vad?

Kanske lite väl draperande, men färgen gör en glad ändå
