"Cute Little Bow" Top Refashion

Yay for first blog post! :) 

After going crazy over finals week at FIDM, I can finally relax for a full 3 weeks. 

For my first blog post I decided to feature a cute little top that can be worn all throughout the summer with your favorite bottoms, or even as a swimsuit cover up if you find a longer t-shirt and use sheer material for the back. 

I used this tutorial here from inspirationrealisation.com

Mine looks a tad bit different from the one in the original tutorial because I didn't use a longer hem for the back and my bow looks different. I finished the inside seams with a zig-zag stitch since I don't have a serger. 

I made two shirts, one for me and one for my mom. :)
