Sorbetto 2.0



I picked up this fabric at the recent St Vincent De Paul Warehouse sale for a mere 50c. I didn't know that beneath the rolled up bundle was a mess of hacked up cut outs within the fabric. I made do anyway. There was enough good fabric remaining to  make another Sorbetto. This time I gathered the neckline rather than making a centre pleat. I think I prefer this finish. I also cut a size 8 rather than a 12 and it fits me much better. I did still take in the side seams a little though.

I think I made the mistake in the first Sorbetto  of using a fabric that was difficult to work with. Funnily enough the first Sorbetto is still in the to be finished rack - I need to make some more bias tape for the arm holes.
