Spring Top Sewalong Entry #2

My second entry for the Spring Top Sewalong is:

It's adapted from my current favourite pattern New Look 6962 (see here and here).
I made the top in a comfortable length for me and also did some fitting adjustments, but it is very similar to the top on the pattern envelope.

The fabric is from my stash, and I think I had bought it last year during Fabricland's members sale. If memory serves me right, it would have been about $3/m. It's a light cotton, with delicately embroidered flowers. I've been waiting for warmer weather to arrive in order to make a top with this fabric.

I realize that I seldom show the back view of my sewing projects, so here it is:

There it is:
(Tara Banks will flay me for my facial expression and clawed fingers, but I guess it's no secret that I'm not Top Model material! Hahaha!)
