Brown Buttons Sorbetto

(Ready for work in my Brown Buttons Sorbetto)

I love my Mustard Print Sorbetto so much, that while I was on a Sorbetto high, I whipped up another. This one is also made of a knit jersey fabric--some type of Rayon mix.

I took the lessons that I learned from my last Sorbetto, and used the same technique I used before to finish the neck and arm openings. I also deepened the armholes about a 1/4" more.

(Next time, I'll try wearing it tucked in)
  This time, I hemmed as indicated in the pattern (instead of the band I used last time). And I used lace hem tape to finish the hem inside. Doesn't it look pretty? I also made French seams on the shoulders and sides.
(View of the inside- notice the lace on the bottom hem)

I also added some decorative buttons to personalize the look even more. These four buttons were lost without matches, but they really look nice together on the placket of this top.

  2. Lovely! I haven't tried a Sorbetto yet, but this makes me want to get cracking on it. I love how you used the mismatched buttons.
