Maybe I am crazy, but I love it. I would make more with less shine. My opinion...wear it with pride!

Thanks for the heads up. I have this pattern in my stash and I'll be sure to shorten it as I'm 5'2". And I think your version is wearable...

Well, I think it looks stunning! It was the picture which made me look more closely at this review....

Thanks for the review and I'm sorry you didn't like the finished product. Your top is very lovely and also inspired me to try the pattern.

But the shape really suits your hourglass figure!

It looks very pretty on you! When I read your review, I was surprised you didn't like it.

I think your new top is so pretty! Beautiful material!

You look beautiful in teal.

I think the neckline looks nice on you. The top is a pretty style and stretch velvet is a pretty fabric, but maybe they don't go together? I agree with the earlier comment that it would look very different in a less shiny fabric and I also think that a slightly wider neckline might make a difference, too.

I think it looks terrific! I just bought this pattern, so I'm glad to read your review. Thanks!

Oh, good gravy, gelbean! I just stumbled on this review after posting mine. I agree with the previous commentors who said "Oh but you look so cute in it!" because yes, you do! But I also see exactly the things I DIDN'T like about mine. It looks like maybe you have the cowl neck turned in a little? because it didn't really drape right? And the ruching, which is what I love, is lower - toward the hips, rather than really around the midriff, which is so forgiving? And you had to add at least twice the elastic called for? And the sleeves have such a tiny length of elastic, it hardly has a design effect? Hmmmm! Well, if you get inspired to try again, you know to shorten it. It's a unique top to have in your wardrobe.

I think it's lovely...don't know what you don't like so much...I would never say it's a wadder.
