Rhonda in Montreal 11/7/08"I used a 16 with 18 sleeves"... Ruthie, how do you "go" from a 16 shoulder to an 18 sleeve? Rhonda with chubby arms ;(

Dee2 11/7/08Beautiful top!! I never thought about using ribbon as a stabilizer & it does sound like a pretty solution. Thanks for your review.

Athene 11/7/08Such a pretty print - very nice top.

LornaJay 11/8/08Thanks for the tip on sizing up the sleeves - I'd never considered how easy it should be to add wider sleeves in a knit (but then, I've never made myself a knit top either!). Can't wait to see it being modelled. DrLJN

marjenann 11/8/08Very, very pretty. The entire wardrobe is sensational! Annette

Geordie Girl 11/8/08Nice top Ruthie. The colour is fab.

Luckylibbet 11/8/08Really pretty top - and thanks for the body type description, this should be very helpful to the audience! A really thorough review too, thanks!

pfaffkj 11/8/08lovely top, Ruthie. And a very helpful review -- lots of good information. Thank you

goldesdottar 11/8/08Thank-you for the body-type/alterations information; does this mean you've looked at the thread on this subject? ;-} It really makes the whole idea of reviewing the same patterns by multiple reviewers the best way to see not only how that pattern works, but aids in developing the eye to see this in other garments, too. Thank-you again.

Mary Stiefer 11/9/08Well done. I love the print. P. S. Love your avatar - the hat is great.

yorkshire lass 11/10/08Ruth, very pretty top. Love the fabric and am looking forward to seeing it on you.
