Peasant Top – Variation on a Theme

 

With much delight I have noticed the Peasant top making a come back.

This variation was made with B4686 Butterick (A).

I strayed from the pattern slightly and found the instruction for the collar useless.

To create the contrasts, I reversed the front inlay to make a feature of it (see detail photos below) and added a lace edge.

I used a dark navy blue cotton for inside the collar and also hand stitched the collar (inside edge) and used calico to re-enforce both the collar and the front panel.
