This top features a unfinished quilt TOP that was hand-pieced with lots of beautiful old shirting fabrics - there are lots of great ginghams, stripes, and textures (it does not have batting or backing) in a classic Shoofly pattern. It is 100% cotton and has been left unlined to keep it breezy and warmer weather appropriate. This sleeveless top has a scoop neck on one side, and a slightly deeper scoopneck on the other - either neckline can be worn in the front/back.which can be worn both ways). It is perfect to wear on its own or layered over a long sleeve as a vest in the cooler months.
As this piece is made from a vintage/antique quilt top that has lived a full life before becoming a piece of wearable art, it is possible it show it's age in the form of some discolorations and wear to some of the fabrics. These areas are viewed not as defects, but merely giving it character and a nod to it's past life. Please review the photos as returns are not accepted.
