Pattern Description: Peplum top with sleeve variations

Pattern Sizing:8-24, I made a 16
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?Yup

Were the instructions easy to follow?Yes

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?It's a really fast sew, great if you want a quick trendy fix!

Fabric Used:Printed Ponte knit from Fabricland; made by Telio.

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:Lengthened it by 1 1/2" in the body.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?I may, as it's a super fast sew. I also set in the sleeves flat (like I do with any t-shirt) and it worked like a charm.

Nice top. The softer knit gives a quite different look for this pattern. Most of the other versions I have seen have been in a more structured woven. Thanks for the inspiration!
