Very cute! I want to try this top, too. Thanks for clarifying how the corrections would change your garment.

Oh, I love this! It is so flattering on you. You've inspired me to use some striped remnants in my stash.

You've made a very nice top from such a simple design.

I am making this top for my DD today, so your review is just in time for me. Cute top!

I just made one of these and it isn't very comfortable. It binds across the back and underarms. I wish I had looked here and read your review first! However, if I made it using larger squares, I think it would be too large around the bottom. I think this is something I won't be trying again. Too bad, it looks so cute in the magazine.

I too was intrigued by this idea so I tried it in some "junk" fabric. I made it by the newed dimensions mentioned in your review but mine is much too big. I will try it again in the original as I think yours is very flattering. If I can get the fit right, I plan on making several with this method. Thanks for a great review. Jackie
