Linen top

Pattern: Burda 05/2000, model 109/111
Fabric: linen poly blend

I used same pattern as in red linen set top but with few modifications - it's using neckline of model 111 from same issue and doesn't have back darts. I used bias binding to make straps opposed to sewing them separately and finishing neckline and armholes with facing. Hemstitching at the neckline was done by hand but I wish I had a finer thread. It was a quick and easy project, good to bust a pile of poly-linen blend I wish I never bought (it was sold to me as real linen). If I'll sew some top from same fabric... I'll use cotton bias binding or facings as it results in really thick bias tape.
