| Renren | 5/28/09 | Ah, the mystique of Heatherique beckons . . . and another marvelous top it is. (By the way, my 16 y.o. dd is watching Pretty in Pink I(from the 80s) on DVD upstairs and I am hearing some of the music--which is good--and I thought, I'll bet Heatherique knows these songs. Your musicology is lost on me as I must have been sleepwalking through the 80s, but it does sound like there was some good stuff out there!) |

| Annette1 | 5/28/09 | VERY cute in this wonderful embroidered linen. AND I really think you can end your search for the perfect belt, because this IS the perfect belt, I think. It repeats the design of the embroidered flowers, adds a little sparkle, defines the waist, and yet doesn't cut up the lines of the blouse. FABULISIMO look! (I made that word up.) I can't believe of all the patterns with gathered necklines I've poured over in the wee hours, I never thought of just TIGHTENING THE ELASTIC to pull in the shoulders. Duh! :o) That's a perfect fix. |

| Michele19 | 5/28/09 | It's really cute. And it looks just as expensive as the other tops you were inspired by. the fabric is gorgeous! Great review. |

| marjenann | 5/28/09 | Wow, another fantastic look. You look terrific! I admit, I am watching "The Real Housewives of New Jersey", and this style is all the rage! Your rendition is awesome. I must get busy and whip up a few for moi!!

| Jali | 5/28/09 | That's just lovely! I love how you achieved the look you wanted from the inspiration photos. I'd say your top combines the best from all those tops. |

| nicegirl | 5/28/09 | Very cute! Isn't threading narrow elastic through an even narrower casing a thrill a minute? |

| CynthiaSue | 5/28/09 | Love the Loverboy. I like singing the verses you quote, then trying to remember the song and artist as I am an 80's freak. You top totally looks like 300 bucks!! way to go! |

| nancy2001 | 5/29/09 | Beautifully made, and every bit as nice as the ones costing hundreds of dollars more. |

| Heatherrique | 5/30/09 | Thanks everybody for your kind words and providing me the incentive to sew this top again! I purchased this pattern on a whim, not certain how the results would be. The biggest irony is that patterns I had high hopes for turned out iffy or as wadders or near-wadders. |

| kim*brown | 5/30/09 | Ok, can I have this? |

| FuzzyNavel | 6/2/09 | I wouldn't have given this pattern a second look, but I love how this turned out. You did a great job and it looks great on you! |

| heathercampbell29 | 6/6/09 | Great Job. I just finished 2 of these (view c) and will post my review soon but i really love this top. I did mine exactly as the pattern instructs and it was definitely less than 2 hrs from cutting to finish. Yours look great. I liked that I didn't need an FBA with this top. |

| Annette1 | 6/6/09 | You just look great in COLOR, period. It doesn't seem to matter WHAT color it is. :o) Your blue/yellow top will be perfect for your trip to Sweden to see Heather's grandparents. I loved looking at your Grandparents picture set, too. :o) |
