marec said... That is so pretty! I love your very stylish top. I've made this top also and wonder if you could comment on something: the collar at the neck seems awkward on me and I have to fuss to keep the facings inside. It seems big too. Did you find this? 11/20/09 3:27 PM
kidmd said... Thanks! marec - I've been wearing it all day today, and although I haven't had any trouble with the facings, I do think the back collar is too large, which makes the neckline gap open a bit. I think I may take it in an inch or two and see if that helps. 11/20/09 4:40 PM

KathB said... Thank you Kidmd for posting the excellent solution to the neck gaposis problem on this otherwise wonderful pattern. I altered the CB piece just as you indicated and it worked out perfectly! I really don't have anything to add about this pattern... it's otherwise well drafted and flattering. My facing are behaving, maybe because of the lycra in my fabric. I lengthened to tunic length to wear with skinny pants... 10/8/10 4:38 PM
