S&S: Nursing top for me
I made this by modifying Kwik Sew 2565 (knit tops). The modification for nursing is really cool...I followed the instructions found here:

Overlap style nursing clothing.



I know it's not perfect (the neckline isn't centered properly on the stripe, and the dart under the overlay is causing a wrinkle...but it's not very noticeable when I'm wearing it), however I'm happy with it. I almost never sew for myself so I am just glad I got off my fanny and did. A couple weeks ago I made myself some capri pants but I didn't snap a picture. Now that I've made two things for myself in as many weeks (after a LONG break), I hope/plan to do more of it.

And I realized that I would be more motivated to do it (and also to sew more for my kids) if I post S&S's, so I plan to do these more often.

Thanks for looking!

That's really cute Anne! I would have never noticed the neckline if you hadn't said anything Good for you for sewing clothes for you, it's fun to get something for yourself once in awhile after sewing for everyone else all the time

ETA: I'm envious of your form, I'd love to have one of those one day
