Square Neck Alteration

This is such a cool, easy hack!

I've always liked how a square neckline looks on me, but I have problems with tops I purchase because the neckline is often too wide. My bra straps show. Not good.

I purchased this top last July but haven't been able to wear it for that reason. 

I finally took the time to research how to make a wide neckline narrow. I found several methods, but this looked like one that would work on this particular top.

It took very little time to complete the alteration, once I found this method. The little tucks bring the sides of the neckline in just enough, and without messing with the shoulders or the bust, which fit me well. 

I found a lone pink button in my stash that fits the bill for this casual top.

Here's what it looks like when I wear it.

So often, the hardest part for me to learn a new technique or fixing a problem is simply starting.
