I was given this cool strip of knit fabric by my mother-in-law. I love the cool 70's vibe it has. I cut it before I took a picture of it, but it was one long, thin strip. There wasn't much I could do with it, but since crop tops were on my mind from my recent refashion, I knew exactly what to do.
First I cut the strip in to four equal size panels.
I used my serger to combine two panels together, right sides out, wrong sides together.
Then I sewed the two new pieces together. I tapered the sides in as I moved down toward the waist. I folded the bottom up once and hemmed it. The top I folded over twice and hemmed it.
Finished top
I plan on wearing it as more of an undershirt, like this, than by itself.
It was a fun way to use a little piece of fabric. Now can add a little color under my long button up shirts in the fall.
