Sew4Fun said... Wow Erica. That is one sexy little Christmas top. :) You should be the model for this pattern as I never would have looked at it otherwise. 12/3/06 9:24 PM
Tiner W said... Ooh la la! Your skills and taste are insppiring! 12/3/06 10:06 PM
Vonnevo said... Love this one Erica! I too had problems working out the back configuration and used safety pins on my dressmaker's model. I love the top and specially the front tucks too.
I took my top to PR Weekend DownUnder last May and most people tried it on. I should do a review :)) 12/3/06 10:10 PM
BeckyC said... This is a gorgeous and very flattering top on you! I agree you should be the model for the pattern. Thanks for showing us one more pattern we just have to have! ;) 12/3/06 10:14 PM

Eme said... I've been eyeing this pattern recently - maybe all my blog lurking is paying off and your fabulous sense of style is starting to rub off on me! :) Lovely top - really love the back - neat detail. 12/3/06 10:49 PM
Mary Stiefer said... What a beautiful top and it looks fabulous on you. I love red and - it appears - so do you. Great job. 12/3/06 11:07 PM
Stacy Sews said... Wow! You look FANTASTIC in this top! It looks so much better than the pattern envelope. I may have to add this to my pattern wish list. THANKS! 12/3/06 11:08 PM
Christina Sonja said... Very flattering! The fit is great. 12/4/06 0:49 AM
jlg said... Very sexy top. Very flattering on your figure. 12/4/06 5:36 AM
ryan's mom said... Echoing the other comments--use your pic instead of the pattern drawing on the envelope! What a beauty of a top you have sewn up!! Being a person that doesn't like anything knotted in the back, is the top comfortable to wear, for example, sitting against the flat back of a chair? Is the knit you used thin enough that it's not a bothersome feeling? Maybe I'm the only person with that problem though. 12/4/06 7:05 AM
sandrasdaughter said... Stunning! The fit is perfect. 12/4/06 7:39 AM
Zaneta said... Erica, you look gorgeous. This top came together so well. It was worth the pain..thanks for your review 12/4/06 7:58 AM

AnneM said... Very pretty top; love it. Is it uncomfortable w/ the knot in the back, though, when sitting in a chair? 12/4/06 9:36 AM
Karen6790 said... Oh my, that is a top with a 'tude. Looks great on you, as usual. 12/4/06 10:01 AM

ACB said... Ay......caliente, (my broken spanish) that's hot! (I'm buying the house next door just to see what you are sewing). 12/4/06 1:20 PM
NancyDaQ said... Ryan's mom, AnneM--it doesn't look like a true knot on the back, more like a twist. Based on that, my guess is that is would be fine. I'm sure Erica will chime in when she gets a chance. 12/4/06 5:12 PM
Erica B. said... Ryan's mom, AnneM and Nanflan --
It's not a knot, the pieces are just looped over the other. Very comfortable, probably due to the fabric.
Thanks for all of your compliments! 12/4/06 5:32 PM
blue mooney said... Oh, yeah! Smashing! 12/4/06 6:01 PM
Avril said... Go ahead girl. That is so nice. 12/4/06 7:43 PM

Johanna Lu said... Love, love! And the back design is very cool. The top looks super on you. Can it work with a bra? I am thinking about bra straps showing. 12/11/06 10:31 AM
Erica B. said... - Johanna Lu,
I was wearing a demi-cup bra with clear straps because bra straps will probably peek out.
Thanks you all for all of the great compliments. 12/12/06 7:05 PM
