Polyester chiffon would never be my Fabric of Choice but you have made a most attractive blouse of it. That type of neckline is so becoming to you.

Gigi, that is so pretty. It seems like a good pattern with which to try out some of those tempting but tricky fabrics (maybe? ) Now I have to get this one, too. Ah, well. :)

Gigi, you're right, it does look better than the envelope! Very attractive.

Gigi, you are really a bad influence for my pattern-addiction tendency! That is beautiful and I appreciate your review.

Nice wrap top, Gigi! I am so glad you went ahead and tried a wrap top> This is stunning! Much better than the pattern drawing. I chose the Vogue design because I did not like the way this one looked. Just goes to show you can't judge a pattern by its cover alone!

Your top looks SO much nicer than the picture on the pattern, it is really lovely.

Gigi, how well do you think this pattern would hug the limited curves of us A/B cup gals? Is a larger bust size sort of built into the pattern? Your top is beautiful!

Gigi Louis said...
Thank you all! Julia, my dressform is probably a b-cup - there is just a little more drape on her than there is on me.

Beautiful, Gigi! I like wrap tops, and this one looks great. You did such a wonderful job.

You call that a muslin? This looks like an after the muslin, get the good fabric out version!

Gee, what a great idea == cut that long edge on the grain! Thanks for the review, Gigi, I would never have looked twice at that pattern otherwise...I haven't tried a wrap top, but this one looks like a possibility!

Another beautiful top, Gigi. I bet it looks lovely on you.

I'll join the others in praise of something I would never have looked at twice before seeing your review.
