Thing 14 & 15 - maternity wrap top
I am counting this Thing as two Things because it took me so long and I went well over the 20 minute - 1 hour time limit 
This is a maternity wrap top. I have never worked with stretchy knit material or made a shirt before, so I’m very proud of how it turned out. Especially since I did this without a pattern. I, um, borrowed, the idea from Isabella Oliver’s maternity wrap tops, which retail for $130. My version cost me a whopping $3. There are several small issues with this one, like it could use a few more feet of material so I could get a nice tie in there, but for a savings of $127, I’m very pleased!

I was wandering around the links from zefrank.com, and I had to comment when I saw this top! It’s absolutely gorgeous! Besides being heck of a lot cheaper, I actually like the look of your version much better than original wrap tops. Lovely, and very impressive! :]
That’s beautiful! You SHOULD be proud!
MAJOR cool points for you!
Really, really cute! Where was this when I was pregnant?
Brilliant! It looks very pretty on you.
