Day 97: Bowl me over Top
When I found this top, it was way too big for my scrawny frame. :/ I still bought it because: A. It was only $1 and B. I really love that print! 🙂
Luckily, this was a quick fix. Since this top has side pockets, I needed to take it in from the back. There was already a seam there, so this was easy-peasy! 🙂
I wore my newly-resized top for a bowling night! 🙂
I actually managed to do not-too-badly and scored a 108 (awesome for me!). Sadly, my Wii bowling skills do not transfer to the real thing. :/
Cheers!

Did taking it in from the back mean that the pockets were in the wrong place? Didn’t it mean they were further around your back?

It made the pockets a lil weird, but not toooo weird. 😉

I LOOOOOVE oversize bright floral prints like that, especially in the orange/green/teal family. Oh delightful. 🙂

I notice you don’t seem to cut the fabric before-hand, is that so you can rip it out if you sew too much/little? Also, do you cut it afterwards?
ReFashionista
If I cut the fabric beforehand, I run a bit more risk of each side not lining up exactly. Soooo…I just cut it when I’m done! 🙂

Love that you matched your bowling ball to your top!
