Filling in a Low Neckline.

 Hello Readers. Look at this wild dress. I loved all the colors and the fit of the dress was great. I didn't like the neckline and I wanted to fill it in with something. I really wanted it to blend in though. That dress really wants to be the star of the show. 

Before and after.

I had a plan to solve this problem, it involved part of a cowl neck sweater. I cut the cowl neck right off. I just cut around all the way around the neck of the sweater and it was ready for the next step.

It was made of 2 layers so I used my serger to connect the two layers at the cut end. I thought it would keep it nice and neat. I didn't want it to shift around while I was wearing it.

Here is a sweater tube top. It wouldn't work for me as a shirt but it will be perfect under my wild dress.

 

I like how the color of the tube top and the colors of the dress work together. The neckline is filled in and I can wear the dress without worrying about the low cut neckline. I didn't want to put on a cleavage show.

I will show you what I did with the rest of the sweater next time. Thanks for reading along, now go make something fun for yourself.

*Year End Note From Chickie- I loved this crazy dress. It's really lightweight so I will get it back out in spring. The top I made is perfect under it. It totally solved the low-cut problem but blends in with the dress so well.
