Notes	Made in seersucker. I did receive the fabric from a friend free of charge. To me the fabric suited this model (I already made a Lekala top of this fabric last week). The pattern is straight forward. I made alterations: the buste has not enough gathering to pronunciate the buste, so I made this part wider. I did fully line the top (not included in the pattern) in ‘Tassal’ lining, as I am not fond of loose dangling facings. The rest of the top is as in the pattern. I would have liked to elongated the top, in order to cover my hips, but did not have enough fabric left, and did not want to combine it with another fabric. It is a very easy to wear top, suitable for many occasions. The skirt at the pix is my first ‘Lutterloh system’ project: ‘Lutterloh 314 94 Skirt’, also listed by me at this site.
