Join me as I sew a sleeveless top for summer, using a vintage 1950s sewing pattern. Follow along as I walk through the construction steps, including lapped side zipper, bias tape faced armholes, intricate (annoying!) yoke, and narrow hem. If you're looking for tips on perfectly smooth bias tape around armholes, don't forget to check out my tutorial video dedicated to that! ✔️
