What you need
- 1/4" cotton fabric

How to make the top
1. Download pattern here.For private use only, this is copyrighted by me, Read Creations !!!
Make sure you have page scaling set to none !
2. Sew shoulder seams together (1/4" seam as everywhere else as well)
3. Cut 2 strips 1" x 6"
Fold strip in half lengthwise
Open and fold on short side in 1/4", then refold. This should give a nice finished end.
Repeat for other strip
4. Align nice end of strip with back side of shirt (Part C), right sides together.
5. Sew on all the way to the front tip
This picture is from a later step but it will show you how far to sew and also the cut

6. Cut a small cut from the V-tip to just short of your seam straight down
(make sure you don't cut your stitches)
7. Fold inwards
You can see the cut, we made in the last step
8. Align other strip finished end with the top end (Part B) and sew right sides together
Stop sewing just before you reach the front cuff
