that looks great on you. Thanks for the tip regarding the back. Kwik Sew do seem to run so large, so measuring is the best way to go. Regarding the fabric handling, it is really hard to know how washing and drying will change it without having made the garment. But it sounds like you figured it out. Thanks for the review.

Your tops look great! I love your fabric choices! I have this pattern and I need to put this in my list. Thanks for the advice on the back!

This looks great on you! How do you manage to keep the same tiny figure as your girls? Great job on the empire waist top. Loved your last podcast!

I love what you did with the empire waist. All three versions of this top look very nice. I really like your fabric choices a lot.

I love this new version. That neckline looks so RTW. It's a nice knit isn't it?

Love your new, gathered front version. That is a beautiful color and cute style change.

Thanks so much for this review Lori. I bought this pattern for a song since it must be OOP then got home and saw that the other reviews weren't stellar. Your tops are all nice and I will now be more motivated to give this a try.
