Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
This is the third top I've made from this pattern. I would say yes pretty
much
Were the instructions easy to follow?
The instructions are very straight-forward and the top goes together very well.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
I love this pattern nothing to dislike.
Fabric Used:
Ponte Knit
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
I made a slight alteration at the upper chest area, lengthened the waistline 1". Wanting to add volume to the peplum, I did add three 2" wedges to each peplum piece (front and back). This added 12" to the total peplum. I love the volume.
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
Oh, definitely.
Conclusion:
This is such a lovely pattern and much can be done with the peplum. I highly recommend this pattern.
