Thanks for the wonderful review. Lovely, lovely top. My pick for Burda Aug 08 but the idea of an invisible zipper held me back. What an elegant solution you came up with.

Lovely top Liana. Thank you for all the detail in your review. I don't think I've ever seen a hanging snap.

I think I must find a copy of this WOF just for this top! I like your back finish solution.

I just traced this pattern for my mini-wardrobe, so thank you for the timely review and the wonderful solution to the "zip or not to zip" dilemma I was facing. Beautiful top.

Beautiful top, Liana, and the muslin is terrific, too! Thanks for all the great tips. I must make this top for the fall, and your review will make it so much easier!

Great looking tops, Liana! I'll copy your idea for hanging snaps! Very clever!

Beautiful top! I also use handstitching on knits, as I think the end result is nicer.

Very pretty, Liana! I will print out your review and keep it with my magazine! Thanks for your back closure solution!

The review is very thorough, and I really learned the "ins and outs" of this pattern. Thanks for a great review! I am going to get the Burday Magazine today!

Beautiful top, Liana! You have such wonderful attention to detail. I love your finish on your sleeves, and hope you don't mind if I borrow it from you on my future version. ;) Wonderful Review!
