SewWil said... I think your top turned out great. I like the print a lot. I just picked up this pattern. Thanks for the heads-up about the sizing. 1/24/12 11:10 PM
Lori V said... I think your top is very pretty and looks just like the $150 top. With time away from the sizing issues, maybe the top will prove to be a winner. 1/25/12 8:16 AM

cleverkitty said... Palmer & Pletsch missed the boat when they came out with fitting Jersey/Spandex/Lycra style tops. Jalie patterns are the answer and from there you can go back to the big 4 with experience. You can not try the tissue on with a stretchy fitted style top...period
next up--- the $150 top has it's worth in the Label (keep the label) most likely lower end clothing are knock-offs from originals made with inexpensive fabrics? You get an A for effort for trying to copy an original ~~~ is that not priceless?
Idea? you mentioned you were going to wear this with brown skirt, brown pants and later white pants. What about making a skirt in the same fabric (appropriate for knits pattern) turning it into faux dress with some knock out color accessories like royal blue or raspberry???
