Pattern Description: Sleeveless top with a big nice drapey collar in the front. The pattern is a download pattern, so after buying it, you can print it out on your home printer, tape it together and just cut your size.
Pattern Sizing:xs - xxl. I used size S. Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? My top totally looks like the picture on the website
Were the instructions easy to follow? The instructions were great and easy to follow. I had to sew the shoulder seam twice but just because I sewed them together inside out. So user error not pattern error.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
I really like the look of the shirt. My fabric is a drapey rayon jersey, that a friend gave me and it's draping really well.
The only thing I wish I could have were sleeves, so that I could make a long sleeved version for winter!
Fabric Used: Very drapey rayon jersey
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:None. I think, next time I will try out working with clear elastic as suggested in the pattern (the pattern gives you the option of working with fold over elastic or clear elastic)
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? Yes and yes!
Conclusion: Great pattern esp. if you are looking for a top to wear either with a pantsuit or also for going out!
(Picture will follow after christmas!)
