Spring Top Contest

I have entered a Spring Top sewing for ME contest!  I sew a lot, but it's always for the little ones, so it's fun to concentrate on me and the things I like!
I have seen a lot of florals and lace this spring so thought I would incorporate both into my design.  I used a tank I already had as a pattern!

The materials I used were all thrifted.  Lace and some kind of sheer vintage fabric in the prettiest pale colors.  Although I am a bit pale myself right now!

I pleated the neckline to keep it feminine and used some vintage bias tape to finish the arm holes and neckline.

A doily pocket and a pretty bow on the shoulder completes the look!

I am loving the lace back.

It will look even better with a tan!
