Pattern Description: Loose fitting tops with deep cowl neckline and draping

Pattern Sizing:I made a 14

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?Yep

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?Nothing - it's great. Just make sure you use a super fine and drapey fabric so it doesn't hang unflatteringly from your bustline.

Fabric Used:Rayon Jersey

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:Nothing - as is! A bit of fussing to make the double needle hem do a nice corner, but this is a fast pattern to whip up!

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?I'm not sure, it fit the bill as a top that would elevate a t-shirt and jeans to an 'outfit' - which was what I was going for.

Conclusion: More details on my blog:

sew, stash, sew
