Slinky is a brand of acetate knits, which would probably not work for this pattern because it's not just very drapy but very heavy. This looks very good however, and I love your recycling of the placket!

That fabric is great and I can see why you wanted to "harvest" it. I love your finished top.

What a great recon! If I ever shop, I'll be looking at things in a whole new way.

Very pretty top, I really like the way you have reused the button placket from the skirt.

Your review is quite inspiring! I'd really like to get back into sewing but 1st have necessary de-cluttering on my agenda, so the idea of refashioning is making a lot of sense to me.
