Rae created this pintucked crop top from the Carpe Diem Dress & Tunic pattern. It sizzles in magenta raw silk with a coordinating bouclé at the sides and sleeve hem. She pulled out many of the colors in the bouclé fabric for the silk leaf appliques in pink, orange and blue, and violet binding at neck and hem. She used the lowest HBL on the pattern to locate the cropped hem. Read about the inspiration for this top in Sew Scrappy White Summer Tops and look for more details in a future blog post!
