I love this sewing project posted by Occasional Martha. She took an existing cami that was too short and made it even shorter, turning it into a mock-top. She still gets the benefit of the extra layer at the neckline of her garment, but doesn’t have to deal with a cami that’s too short riding up under a larger sweater. See the full project.
