I love this top simply because it is so easy to make. After you've done a few complicated projects it's nice to have something you can whip up in an hour or two. In particular something without buttons and zips. I have only done the basic version of the pattern, but added my own little extras to a few of them. The pattern is pretty much two rectangles and some neck facing. The two cloth belts are my own creation taken from an old Vogue pattern that I had.

This is one of those non-crush synthetic blends of fabric which I picked up at Lincraft. This top looks great with fitted black pants. |

I found this lovely fabric on the sale rack at Spotlight. Such a nice light cotton and I adore the colours. |
 |
This is a much heavier cotton fabric which gives the top a more structured look. I wear it with a long skirt for work. |

What's not to love about balloons. |

Added some buttons with this fabric I bought from the craft section at Lincraft |

I've got a lot of wear out of this particular one. I added 2 pleats on each size which gave the top some shape. |

Taking inspiration from a onesy that I made for my friend's baby. The kitty face is borrowed idea from something I saw no Etsy. |
I do love that onesie :-)
