It looks pretty on you. I know what you mean about over-altering a pattern -- just sew those wings off!

I was just looking at this pattern last night as my next possibility for a sleeveless summer top -- I was a little concerned about the style for a plus-size. Your review is pushing me in the direction of getting it traced off and giving it a try -- thanks for the nudge.

I ended up with little wings also... I'm thinking maybe a pattern drafting issue... not that big of a deal though!

LOL...i am a year late with my comments, but I am about to work on this over the weekend. I also used the slide and pivot method, but I also find that it will give these wings at the hip line...I love your top though.
