Pattern Description: From the Vogue pattern envelope: 'Close fitting tunic'

Pattern Sizing: Xsm- Medium (in the envelope I purchased).

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
Yes, very much so.
Were the instructions easy to follow?Yes.

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?This top is very stylish and comfortable to wear and would work well with many types of knit fabric, but it runs large.

Fabric Used:Knit of an undetermined vintage. I bought it at Michael Levine's Loft.

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:I made this top twice in two different knit fabrics and I didn't have enough fabric for either top so I had to do a little piecing.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?Yes, I would sew this again and I would recommend it, too.

Conclusion: Great stylish top, which is comfortable to wear and is an easy knit to to sew, too.

A few more pictures and my sewing ramblings are on my blog
