Hi there,
I hope this is the correct place to post my question - many apologies if not...
I was just wondering if anyone had some advice please for sewing a jersey neckband onto a woven lawn cotton top / t-shirt?
As per photo, I followed the measurements on the pattern for the length of the jersey neckband, but it is still a little "loose" and too full on the folded edge, so it doesn't sit completely flat.
The thing is though, that when I tried to stretch the neckband a little more (and therefore shorten the neckband) it then puckered the cotton lawn fabric. This is the best I could get it....
I would like to make more of these tops as it's such an easy and speedy pattern, but I really need to nail inserting the neckband first!
Any suggestions, would be very gratefully received! :-)
