Cute top! If you wouldn't mind taking a photo of your sliced-and-diced pattern piece(s), I'd love to see how to do an FBA on this.

Ha! Edward Scissorshands! I love it. What a cute top. Glad you didn't let it get the best of you. You look really good in the cropped style with the front gathers. You might want to make one more.

Michellep, I'll do the best I can to photograph my adjustment so it makes sense! I may have to do a blog post, so I'll keep you updated.

What a cute top!! I love the fabric, and I think both of the tops you've made from this turned out really well. Great fit, too, your efforts were worth it!

Hi, I think it looks terrific. Could you also let me know if you blog on the FB adjustment? Thanks.

Another one who wants to see your FBA alterations on your sliced and diced pattern. I've been studying this pattern and it definitely will need a FBA. Your top came out wonderfully. It's so pretty.

That is so pretty on you -almost a shame to not make some more cute variations. Thank you for all the great illustrations on the fba process-it obviously worked very well.
