I made this stripe top for a boutique in Chicago (more details coming soon!). While I was working on these tops, I kind of got obsessed with matching stripes. It gave me a great satisfaction to see perfectly matched stripes! So after finishing these I decided to challenge myself and use the same stripes fabric as chevron stripes. The whole top is cut on bias. I had to cut one piece at a time, and made sure everything matched up. I’m happy that all the stripes matched up, even on the sides.. 🙂
Here is a great post by Sherry on tips to match plaids and checks (but can be applied to stripes too). Also I wrote about tips on matching stripes here.
