Wow, I didn't anticipate such great feedback and so quickly. I'm blushing! Thanks for the warm welcome. It's great to be back into sewing in a significant way, and even better being a part of this community. I've made about 12-15 garments in the last six months, so I'll try to get some more reviews done. To the other tall gals, this is definitely a great pattern for us, since it's pretty long to begin with. Regarding the color, I didn't used to think I could wear anything orange either, but this and another shirt I purchased have pinky-berry tones making it more canteloupe than pure orange. If you see fabric in a similar color, hold it up to you and give it a go, especially if you have pink tones to your complexion.

Fabulous, will be buying this pattern. Congrats on your first review. I have to agree too many of DK's pattern pic are in black with details not showing up

Wow, your top is stunning!!

Welcome back to sewing, and welcome to PR. That is a great style, particularly for tall people like yourself. I have also found that the shade of a color makes a lot of difference in if I can wear it.

Queendom said...
Welcome! Love the style! Thank you for the review. The top looks terrific on you and inspires me to pull this one out of my stash.

Echo from me on all the raves. Looks great, lovely color. This pattern was featured in an article in a recent copy of Australian Stitches magazine, which put it on my buy list. Your review just reinforced it.

You're a 16? Now I'm confused. You looked more like my size (4 on top, 8 in the pants) (only taller). *sigh* Pattern sizes versus storebought sizes confuse me so much!

dorothyn said...
Kitkatpr, You must have missed that I am 6'2"!, and I'm a 14 on top and a 16 in the hips. I'm about a size 10-12 in readymade clothes. If you're a 4/8, I'm probably a lot taller than you. Cheers, Dorothy
