Michelle L said... Very pretty! Thanks for the helpful review! 2/13/09 8:10 AM
Renren said... Ah, yes, going back to the photo I see the sheerness of the sleeves as contrasted to a doubling of fabric in the bodice. Very, very lovely. Thanks for the detail. 2/13/09 8:28 AM
JudyP said... Your top looks great on you! That blue is a nice color for you. I have lined mesh tops with a knit mesh lining from EOS. I think its called power ner, but it works great for linings. 2/13/09 8:34 AM

Christas said... You'll get great mileage out of your new top. It looks so great with a skirt or jeans. It is so versatile..... dresses up or dresses down easily! Very pretty. 2/13/09 9:39 AM
Modiste Madness said... I actually like it with the skirt. Although, I know things can appear different in person . They are both wonderful as usual. 2/13/09 10:02 AM

krawz said... I absolutely LOVE this top.. and I really like what you did with the fabric. It's such a great idea to use a sheer knit like that! It looks fabulous with your jeans. I'm so glad you wrote this review, it was very helpful. I have some fabric like that I just haven't known what to do with until now! 2/13/09 1:03 PM

sewdelighted said... I made this top and loved it until I wore it in public and noticed that it separates at the worst place. I didn't do an FBA. Felt like it wasn't needed. Did you put elastic in the front? does it gape at all? 2/13/09 7:03 PM
Ann Smith said... Sewdelighted, Often I pin the crossover spot on this type of top to prevent gaping. It doesn't gape if I stand up with good posture but, since often I don't, the pin helps! 2/13/09 8:38 PM
Barbara V said... So clever to apply the RTW double layering to your top. Your method of construction was very sensible. It looks great on you! 2/13/09 10:06 PM
