Love it! Thanks so much for the tip regarding the binding. Michelle of Buttontree Lane blog has made this top numerous times now, and it's great to see it here made by you. I think I'd better get that pattern.

I love your top. Better than the Simplicity photo version. Thanks for the review. I might have a look at this pattern.

Jrhee, this silk is from Emma One Sock.
Thornberry, thanks for mentioning Michelle's blog. I must have a look for more ideas as I can see lots of these tops in my future.

Love the top. I agree with dragon10. Yor version looks better than the one on the envelope. Great job!

Looking at this actually makes me long for warm weather...I love the color and print in the fabric. Nicely done.

I love this! AND I have this pattern, and your fabric reminds me of a piece I have in my stash. Thanks for inspiring me!

ooooh I really like this top - so pretty - am going look up the Threads magazine for the armhole finish

Lovely top. Thanks for the alteration suggestions and the tip re binding. I already have this pattern, the Threads magazine and some suitable fabric. Not silk though :(

I do not have the magazine referred to in your review. Would it be acceptable to explain the edge method you used, I would love to make this top in a slinky fabric. thanks

Sew4Fun said...
landstromd, I don't feel this would be ethical, but you could always buy the magazine or Threads CD Archive like I did.
