Pattern Description:
"Chemise, Camisole & Shorts = Cool comfort begins with our new chemise, camisole and shorts. We recommend using soft light fabrics such as silk, silk like fabrics, crepe de chine, batiste, satin and charmeuse. The chemise and camisole have narrow shoulder straps and the top edges are finished with facings. "

Pattern Sizing:
XS-XL. I made a Small on top and transitioned to a Medium from the waist down.

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
yep.

Were the instructions easy to follow?
Yes, but they're Kwik Sew so I expected that.

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
It was simple to make and the directions were logical and simple. I just followed the drawings.

Fabric Used:
Poly/Cotton "Symphony" Broadcloth from Joann's. Now that I know it works for me, I'll make one from silk.

Pattern Alterations or any design changes you made:
None. It's perfect the way it is.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
Yes, I will. I need some slips and this is so simple to make! I was caught off guard when I finished it, because it was so quick! It's a very good pattern.
