  Step 1

  at first, you have to cut out two small and two big parts. the small part ends under your breast. the big is as long as you want.

• 

  Step 2

  you can see my size on the picture

• 

  Step 3

  you get one side when you sew together a small and a big part.
  if you want to add some nice pleat, then you can use this : http://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/butterflies_and_fruit_pleated_tote_2

  When you do this, you will need a wider big part

  you do this twice so now you get two sides:)

• 

  Step 4

  sew together the two sides. you can slenderize it if you think ( i think its the better solution)

• 

  Step 5

  at the end you sew down the top and the bottom of the top (one row at the botton)

  you can add straps here (i added only one)
