First off, how wonderfully fun is this fabric?? This is another Funki Fabrics fabric that was given to me in exchange for review. These are great knits people. This is the Sheesha pattern.
Since I’m going to Mexico in a few days, I decided that I needed a rash guard type of top and something I can get wet in when I’m playing with the kids. This is Nike Dri-Fit fabric and the Funki Fabric knit. I decided to make a matching top and bottom. I think it may be too matchy-matchy, but I’m not sure. What do you guys think? Too much? Hello pasty-white Alaska legs. We sure didn’t get any snow this year, but we still have no sun!
Anyhoo, the top is a tightened raglan top from Jalie. It’s number 3245 and I’ve made it several times before. I used my regular size, but then used larger seam allowances for the sleeves and underarms and brought the side seams in quite a bit to make it more fitted.I also shortened it quite a bit from the original. I really love it in these fabrics.
My original plan was to make the main skirt panel out of the fabric, but can you imagine how bright that would have been?? Yikes. However, I did make it a little surprise underneath. Surprise!
I used Jalie 2796 for the bottoms. I made a size larger than usual. I’ve been cross-country skiing (skate skiing, no classic skiing for me!!) a LOT and my thighs are actually an inch or two bigger around than my normal “running legs”. I made zero modifications to this skirt.
How big and awesome is this friggin’ pocket?? I can put my camera in there and money and be ready to rock.
This is my favorite sports bra and it matches perfectly!! I love the overlapping pockets on the side. Cute AND functional!
Other FunkiFabrics favorites of mine:
My girls would go crazy for some of this for running tights. 
Alas, this is the end of my fabrics from FunkiFabrics. I may be able to squeeze one more thing out of the Prism fabric. We shall see, won’t we?
