I have some extra fabric not enough to make a top, and I thought maybe adding crochet to the top. It is a simple project. I am going to gather the bottom and sew it to the crocheted section. If it comes out good, I will make other summer tops like it. So, have you done anything like this or use crochet edging for other fabric projects.

I've never made them but I would like to learn how to make them. There's often a lady at the farmers market who is making them and selling them I think she usually wants around $7 for one.

I see the towels with the crochet top often. I mostly see them at the flea market.

I wish I knew where she found the pattern, but I've gotten them from someone else years ago!

You are braver then I as I have never tried anything like this. Sounds very interesting though...you'll have to show us a picture when you finish!

I have not made it yet, but definitely will add a picture when completed.
