6.  Fold it in two.DSC_0262

7.  Place the waistband with the bodice together.  The folded part of the waistband must be facing upwards, so you match the raw edges of the bodice with the waistband.

13.  Now, fold the neckline as you did with the waistband. DSC_0274

14.  Pin the neckband to the neckline of the t-shirt.  Remember that the neckline is 1/4 smaller than the neckline on the top, so you must need to stretch at the shoulders to make sure it matches the top.

15.  Sew along and press the seams downwards.DSC_0275

16.  Top stitch the neckband by making a 4.5 stitch length parallel line on the neckline.  The line must be about 1/4 inch away from the original seam.

Repeat this process on the waistband.

17.  Finish the top by making the hem on the sleeves.  Fold the sleeve 1 inch from the bottom and sew along. You can make two parallel lines or use a double needle to do so.DSC_0276 DSC_0277
