I really like to make these tops, and I haven't done one in awhile... so what better time than now, right? I made the front layer with all sorts of random patches of brown cottons, ant the two layers below that are made of a somewhat contrasting brown cotton that looks like fractals at first glance, but it's actually a pretty floral print. The bodice is fully lined and is made of a "diagonal wale" corduroy... I don't know if it's actually considered corduroy, but that's where I found it in the store, so I'll just call it that. The bodice also has darts for comfort and support and a stash pocket on the inside.
