Pattern Sizing: SML - MED - LRG - I used the medium size.

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? Yes

Were the instructions easy to follow? Yes

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I love the shawl collar.

Fabric Used: A fairly heavy polyester knit

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: Yes, I only used 1/4" seam allowances, I finished the inside seams w/ bias tape/and or lace. I tacked down the facing at strategic locations. I did not use the frog closure. I used one big button.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?Yes, yes, yes. I love this pattern.

Conclusion: I really like this pattern, and can see myself using it time and time again.

Just goes to show how great fabric can take a simple silhouette and make it fabulous. Adding this to my wish list.
