OSKA top from Merchant and Mills Factory Top

Today we’ll recreate an OSKA top using the Merchant and Mills Factory dress/top pattern. With just a few simple pattern alterations we recreate one of my current obsessions!

Hi Gini, I really like this top! I love the color and style. The neck does appear to be too wide, if you don’t want your bra straps showing. This neckline shape is very flattering😊, and the sleeve length looks fine to me. That little slit at CF is a nice design element too! I’m so happy I decided to go back and watch all of your videos🤗. Great video!🩷

I always stay stitch the neck before I sew anything else. This stabilizes it and helps to make it sit better and not stretch out. You could always use thin strips of interfacing or similar as well.

That is beautiful! I love watching your videos. You've so much insight into sewing and adjusting and hacking.

Looks great from this side. Very lovely.

Thank you! Maybe a traditional facing for this fabric? The fit looks great. I will check out OSKA!

I think it turned out nice although I don't like the cuffs on the sleeves I like more of a 3 quarter sleeve. I think the neckline will be fine if you throw it in the washer in the dryer. This little blouse is screaming out for sashiko stitching I would've gone down the front both sides of the seam and a couple of rounds around the hem and you can even hit the neck up a couple of times. I like to do hands stitching I like that whole Alabama Chanin thing so it doesn't have to be perfect You could even use like a green silk thread. I realize I'm coming in a day late and a dollar short on this 1 but I have been going back through your videos and they are very very interesting. Someday I'm gonna have to come up to that fabric store.

I really love it. Give it a wash? Maybe the neck will improve?
