Navy Marl Print tee

The remnant used for this top once again had an uneven seam and various faults in the opposite direction, but was slightly larger than the leaf print, so I was able to cut around them and still have proper sleeves.
This uses the body from New Look 6414 View C and the sleeve from New Look 6735 cropped to elbow length. The print looks like natural marl or maybe a knit effect, but is printed on to the plain white backing fabric and is lovely. I can see this getting a lot of use when I need a 'navy' top to make a column with navy trousers or blue jeans, but don't want anything too dark around my face.
It should also work well with the white trousers!

Ooh yes, that will look wonderful with a pair of white trousers and maybe a little coloured scarf tied at the neck with knot toward one shoulder. Very chic.
