Those are really cute tops because of the sleeve variations. Good to know about the body fit issues.

I especially like the short sleeve version. The sleeves are too cute. Thanks for a great review!

Very nice tops - too bad the pattern isn't a better draft and you had to spend so much time on the body of the tops. Lovely tops!

I love these patterns too, but from memory I did take it in at the waist. Very pretty colour in the blue short-sleeve one.

Great job on both of these. I like your idea of sewing the sleeves to your TNT tee pattern.

For two summers I've worn RTW (H&M) versions of your short-sleeved top, the only difference I can see being that the neck is lower on my version. Very versatile and flattering garment. Maybe I'll copy my worn-out versions rather than use the pattern. But good to know there's back up if it all goes wrong.
