close up of back
I used the same spider web fabric as Mrs. F's apron along the sides of the back closure and put those eyelets in myself
(those are fun to do!)

this is a better shot of the image on the front
Now for the how to....I made it all up as I went along. I can tell you that I patterned the basic shape after the same shirt that I made the halter from. I also put some elastic along the front edge to ensure it would not slip down. For the back I sewed on 2 panels of the spider web fabric and put 1 row of boning on each side. I hammered in the eyelets and then used red ribbon for the lacing.
I am soo loving this top! I plan on making Dixie Doll Heather one as well, since her hubby is The Baron on Nightmare Theatre. Then she and I are going to go to the events and wear them and be Nightmare Theatre whores! Ha ha ha!

You DO look stacked! hahaha
I need to learn some bravery and do some re-cons of my own.
Not only is your house cuter than mine, your t-shirts are too. That's a wicked design. And stacked++!
I don't know what state you live in, but you aren't in the Seattle area and know a band called Dudley Manlove Quartet do you? Just wondering, because your t-shirt has Plan 9 on it.
Love the halter one! very cute. I keep wanting to attempt it...
Love the blog!
oh i love it!!!
That is so cool!!! I love it and the halter top. Can't wait to see what else you have planned for your big T's.
I also have to say I love all the cool retro recipes you make. They look so yummy. You make me want to live in the 50's all the more.
Oh yeah, you are IT girl!
