Extra Fabric - Make another 4076

Simplicity 4076, that is, my favorite t-shirt pattern. I had leftover fabric from Simplictiy 3918 and decided a couple more t-shirts were needed. My wardrobe is in desperate need for summer tops, especially work type tops.


Here is the first one - I added the waistband out of necessity. I forgot the stretch runs with the stripes vertically, I cut out with the stripes horizontally (oops, big oops). I had enough to recut the top except for the front and I had to be creative. Thus, the two sections with a bias band at the waist. I like the look so all is well.


Here is a close-up of the waist.


One more from the blue (bottom band of the Simplicity 3918). I was too lazy to rethread my serger and coverstitch machine, so I used white picot elastic for the neckline and the white CS thread worked pefectly then.


Here is the picot, isnt' it interesting? I bought it in a grab bag somewhere.


Now off to a track meet in the rain, I am working the finish line. Why didn't I sew a rain jacket for this spring we are having? If I did it would have been Murphy's Law and no rain - ha ha!
