Positives:
It’s a super wearable straightforward to sew top that can be made dressy or casual as required.
There are good variations to create the perfect top you need with long sleeves, collar variations.
And it’s like a blank canvas for embellishment!
Nuff said right?
Negatives:
For me it was determining the sizing. I am a freaky body type though. Crazily small shoulders and neckline, small bust, bigger waist, even bigger hips. And it took me a while to grade the pattern correctly. What made it more difficult for me is that all the sizes aren’t on a single pattern pieces. They cover only a few, e.g. 8, 10, 12 with another for 14, 16, 18. Great for anyone who wants to grade between those sizes. Not so great for me.
Oh well.
Would I make it again? And what would I do differently?
YES!! Hell yes I’m making this again. Now I’ve mastered the fit I’m going to be all over this pattern. I’m going to make one with buttons down the back. Another with the long sleeves. Another in view c with the side collar/bow. Another with a pleated panel on the front. Another…. oh I’ll shut up because you get the jist!
