Beautiful as always, Gigi. Thanks for the review. I have this pattern for when I return to sewing knits. My last experience was not so good. For less bust, should I remove some of the gathers?

Very pretty, Gigi! The longer sleeve gives this top a less casual feeling and opens up more occasions for wearing it. As always, your sewing is beautiful.

Thank you both! Jlg, I would make a test garment to see if the gathers are too much. They do add interest. Mine has quite a few more gathers than the original pattern.

Gigi, your top is very beautiful. I like the longer sleeve. What is a Canadian cotton?

Very pretty! When I tried this pattern, the bust was high on me also, and I wear a small B cup. Great sleeve treatment!

That is so sweet looking. The longer sleeve is just great. Beautiful job as always. How nice that the sleeve fit in without alteration. :)

What a sweet, romantic top - great for spring - and your blouse looks more stylish than the pattern picture.

Yes - do the dress! It's great as a top & I think it would look fantastic as a dress. I know this is an old review, but I thought I'd put my comments in anyway :)
