This is a very pretty vest/jacket. I have this pattern also, but yours is so much nicer than the picture on the pattern front. Nice job! Thank you for posting

The neckband looks perfectly aligned; the button is perfect; the fabric is a knockout; and I love those little sleeves. Much nicer than the pattern envelope! And now there is a 3-way tie for first place!!! It's getting exciting . . . for people like me, anyway.

This is so pretty-I love the colors of the fabric, and the big button. It's a fun and stylish jacket/vest. Nice job!!

This is really lovely! Everything is spot on. I have to echo the others and say the fabric and button are just perfect!!

Great vest and such a lovely fabric. Good thinking on adjusting the pattern to make it fit the length of fabric you had.

You made a really nice top! I agree that the envelope photos are really unattractive - so thank you for a very helpful review!

A stunning jacket! Great review that explains how you solved the fabric shortage issue. I agree, the pattern photo is unattractive ... And yours is so beautiful!
