Yesterday I made over our old mannequin, and here she is in all her glory! Was a lovely task to immerse myself in before starting this weeks night shifts.
I removed the cover, hand washed it with combination of detergent and vanish whitener (the b***s were a bit ‘dull’ after one too many comical cuppings 😂), followed by a soak in bleach and a good old rinse. Lastly, I did a good wash with some softer to make her feel special, with another gentle rinse before hanging her out in the garden. I also had to give the poor love one of my old soft-cup bralettes,as the right b**b had taken a bit of a bashing somewhere along the line!!
This is one of my favourite tops to make, from her patterns are well designed, easy to follow and very maker friendly, do check her out (her insta feed is beautifully wistful).
Of course, the obsession continues 😂
