Good save with your alterations. You've taken this pattern line and made it your own. I like the cardigan a lot.

Thank you for your review. The cardigan does look a bit big on you. It seems to be long too. When it is buttoned up, you see more shirt than slacks, which make your legs seem short. Have you thought of making matching pants to lengthen your line? The pullover is a good idea. Would your be comfortable wearing a deeper V-neck? I can sure see than this pattern could have potential. You could add pockets to the cardigan, cuffs to the sleeves. Wear your TNT shirt underneath as a twin set.

You did a nice job on these tops. I like that bound edge.

Congrats on tackling this. I'm certain you will get it perfected in no time (looks pretty close already).

Excellent review and good results. Keep working with this pattern, maybe go down a size or two, and definately shorten it a couple of inches at the hem and a bit at the cuff as well. The raglan is good on you, but you could go down a size there as well. This is an excellent base pattern for copying all sorts of RTW raglan tops, even a zip front hoodie if you like.

Good job on these! It's great that you keep on trying to get the exact look that you want.

Your cardigan looks very well sewn, but I do have to agree with the other comments that I think it's a bit too big. I also appreciate your honesty about this line of patterns being about covering your whole body with yards of fabric -- I agree, and that's not the most flattering style to us plus size ladies. You *do* have a shape under those yards and I think with a few tweaks you will have this pattern perfected. The raglan styling is a good style for you, as is the vertical line of the cardigan. Great review! I had somehow missed your earlier reviews and am now going back to read them. Thanks so much for modeling your garments -- I really appreciate it.

I found your reviews looking for comments about this pattern line. I appreciate you candid remarks! I also am pretty much of an apple but have BIG biceps and a much larger hip-to-bust ratio. I think, based on your review and others that I'm going to give this line a try. ThankYou!
