Mama and Me Sewing: Mama Tara Twist Top and and Tara Twist Top by Made for Mermaids

/

It’s a quick knit top that is perfect for all seasons! A semi-fitted top with a unique front twist. The twist gives a fun silhouette. Choose from 5 sleeve options- sleeveless, short sleeve, twist sleeve, 3/4 sleeve or long sleeve.

If you visit Tara Hacks, you’ll see all the fun hacks for Tara. Off the shoulder, split ¾” or long sleeve plus how to make your top without the twist!  In fact I used the off the shoulder hack & without the twist . I went with a more slight off the shoulder giving me the option to have one side more covered than the other.

I used this fun Star Wars print I got from Joann.

This top has so many fun features and is a staple not only in my closet but, for my girls as well with the girls Tara.

This top is the perfect silhouette. I feel so confident and beautiful while wearing it. I can’t wait to make more. Using the split ¾” sleeve

I hope you enjoyed seeing what I created with this gorgeous pattern designed by Made For Mermaids.

Xoxo, Nicole
