Barbara V said... Lucky SIL. Although it is not your preferred style, you still look great in it and the fabric is lovely and perfect for your weather. Nice job. 11/23/09 5:18 PM

Great review - I also had a total failure with this top for my body type although I am a bit of an apple - it was huge and the kimono sleeve made all definition between bust/shoulder/upper arm disappear! You did really well to make it work! I like the increased neckline alteration. I do think it looks great on you, though. 11/23/09 7:14 PM

(This is why we're supposed to still shop at the mall, but I hate to waste the time.) Better luck with your next project! 11/24/09 9:18 AM
