facesunderwater said... The instructions said to "stretch" the neck tie to make it fit properly but I just don't see how that would have worked. Instead I just added 1 and 1/2" to the length and it lined up perfectly. I am curious to know if others had the same issue. 8/26/12 10:15 PM
Renren said... This is a lovely top. I'll watch for the nautical version. Hmm, I might want this pattern . . . 8/27/12 6:32 AM
nicegirl said... This looks great on you--it has a lot more shape than other patterns I've tried in this genre. I might have to try it out. 8/27/12 1:44 PM
Michele Lommasson said... Very darling indeed. You look fabulous. Apropos the neck tie, was it supposed to be cut on the bias perhaps?
Never mind that, it does not look a bit wrong the way you did it. Why did you make me love another pattern? 8/27/12 5:12 PM
MamaSewing said... Beautiful top, I am thinking this is just the one I need to try next! 8/27/12 5:20 PM
facesunderwater said... If I remember the neck tie was cut on the bias. Sometimes I can't tell if i'm crazy and pattern pieces aren't fitting together properly or if i'm doing something weird. Thank you for your compliments ladies. 8/27/12 7:36 PM
CLDebra said... I love your version of this pattern. I made it, too, but with the flounce collar and I modified the sleeves (to simple short sleeves) for a summer white cotton blouse. I thought that this pattern was fun to sew and it came together really well. I *love* the color of your blouse and your buttons! It looks so pretty on you. Thanks for the review!! 8/28/12 1:56 PM
