Tutorial: Gathered maternity boob tube

Place a strappy top on material back facing up ( i used a halter with straps laid down)

Cut around the top Leaving a decent seam allowance.

Place you back piece (that you have just cut out) on to material and cut it about an inch bigger at each side and about 5 inches longer than back piece!

(sorry not a very clear pic)

Place peices face to face

Place a marker where bust ends mine was about 6 inches down (I marked with a pin.) doesn't matter to much about measurements here. (if you want it gathered at the bust just make slightly longer when cutting! ^_^)

Now sew along sides gathering from under the bust.

I did 4 gathers/pleats about a inch and a half apart

Do the same at the other side

Hem top and bottom and your done :)

And now heres a few pictures of it on :)

EDIT!

you might want to make back slightly longer too maybe a inch longer as when i wore this kept on riding up my back! which was very annoying!!!

EDITED TO ADD: this top fitted right to the end of my pregnancy :) (my baby girl was born at 42weeks)
