Tifa’s Top
Next, we are going to work on her top. Start by finding a tank top that fits you well and laying it atop the fabric.
Fold the bottom of the tank top so it will be the length that you want for your finished top. I bought a zipper that was 9 inches long, so I folded the tank top until it was 9 inches from the bottom of the neckline to the bottom of the top. I added a centimeter of length so it wouldn’t be too short when it is time to finish up the raw edges.
When the length of the neckline to the bottom of the top is the length of your zipper, cut on fold (resulting in a half pattern) leaving some room for seam allowance. Then, cut two more pieces not on fold (resulting in a full pattern. Until you have two pieces for the front of the top and one piece for the back. Sew a zipper in between the two pieces to connect them.
Next, lay the back piece over the front piece, right sides facing together. Sew the top of the shoulders and up sides. (Sew where the blue lines are)
