Sewing McCall's 8255 top - tips and review

Hello! So in today's sew-along I am making a McCalls 8255 top that was intended to be made in a woven fabric with a (gasp) separating zipper in the back! Um, no, So I am using the pattern and modifying some of the construction techniques to make it out of a stretch knit instead. I also will show you how to use a double needle and how to use hidden elastic to make sure that the neck does not gape open.
I hope you like it!
