Fabric Pieces

After cutting your fabric, you should have the following pieces:

• 1 seamless front piece (cut on a fold)
• 1 seamless front facing (cut on a fold)
• 4 strap peices

STEP 1

Gather one strap piece, fold it vertically in half with the right sides of the fabric facing each other.

STEP 2

Serge the folded ends together and trim off at the half inch seam allowance. If you don't have a serger you can use a stretch stitch or zig zag stitch.

Then flip the strap right side out, using a loop turner or saftey pin.

STEP 3

Serge the bottom edge of the front facing piece.

STEP 4

Gather the front piece, 2 strap pieces and the front facing piece. Layer them right sides facing each other, with the straps in the middle pinning at the strap notch.

STEP 5

Sew the three layers together using a straight stitch or stretch stitch along the top edge and sides, using a half inch seam allowance.

STEP 6

Flip the straps and facing right side out. Then understitch the seams only to the facing edge, then gently press the edges using an iron.

STEP 7

Hem the bottom edges of the top using a rolled hem, folding over twice at a half inch each.

STEP 8

Pin the other 2 straps to the bottom notch under the rolled hem and sew them in place. Sew a couple of lines to secure the straps.
