It does sound like a 'fiddly' top pattern, but glad you got such good results. I'm looking forward to seeing your picture.

Thanks for the review, Shona! You've given me some good things to keep in mind when I make the top, and reminded me that I cut the 'smallest' neckline and used a 3/8" seam allowance there to kind of help keep the dress from feeling like it was falling off my shoulders...I need to go make a note of that on my review!

Wow! What great hints. If I try this one, I will be sure to print them out before I start.

Great review, lovely picture. This sounds like a very nice pattern with good features (I like that they even provide a pattern piece for the bias strip, rather than say use purchased bias tape).

I agree; great review with a very pretty top. Thanks.

Shona, your top looks very good, and the color is beautiful. I bought this pattern for the jacket but haven't done anything with it yet.
