Lifting Pins and Needles | MEGA CUTE active or swim tops! OBSESSED. 3 Cali (GreenStyle). Built in sports bra. 30% off sale! @LiftingPinsandNeedles | Uploaded May 2024 | Updated October 2024, 3 minutes ago.
The Cali top from GreenStyle is super cute and can be made for activewear or swim activities, depending on the fabric. The built in sports bra has great support and is super comfortable! There are many options for the amount of coverage on the straps and the depth of the armhole on the overlay. Make it a top or a dress. I have made 3 versions and I am completely OBSESSED with how they look and feel.

Come and join me as we put together the sports bra with an extra layer of power mesh, sew the elasticated band and the overlay with the gathered neckline option. Let's revise the easy to sew binding too. There's no need to fear here! take my sewing hand and let's do it together.

GreenStyle is having a memorial day sale through the 29th of May 2024. Sitewide 30% OFF with the code MDAY24 This is my general affiliate link: https://greenstylecreations.com?aff=18
