I am a huge fan of boat neck tops and the Rachael does not disappoint. The neckline is finished with a facing and with this fabric, it was a little finicky. This is the Modern Jersey from Spoonflower in a design I created from a Labradorite rock.
The Rachael is fitted through the bust and the waist and hips are slightly fitted.
The neckline is under-stitched to keep it from rolling out, but on this top, it wants to roll out regardless. I plan to go back and topstitch the edge of the facing down to prevent this from happening.
This Rachael is my favorite! This is the boat neck peplum. I made this one in a cotton lycra from Wanderlust Fabrics.
This pretty floral has me ready for Spring.
When I was testing the dress bodice, I did not remove length for my height. After wearing both of these peplum versions of the Rachael, I think I make take the peplum skirts off and remove 1" from the bodice length. I find that the seam falls about an inch below my natural waist.
