Well, I used some cheap jersey from my stash to make this, and I am, on the whole very pleased - it was just what I was looking for - thank you Hayley. But I do need to ask how you finish the neckband?
I followed the instructions, but didn't use an overlocker (I am having some diffiuclty with that and will post in Another Place). But I do have a very good zig-zag edge stich on my Janome (Atelier 7) and it works well. My problem is that the seam then fold upwards towards the neck line, and it doesn't have enough stretch to fold down and lie flat.
For my first attempt I'm not too bothered. The neckband in itself lies very well, and it fits perfectly. But the seam edge is very near the neckline and I think with wear, may show. If I use an overlocker, then the seam will be smaller and it will be less of an issue.
I'd be glad of any advice - thanks!
