Pattern Description:
T-shirt with panel detail above the bust and 3 sleeve lengths.

Pattern Sizing:
XS (30" bust) to XXXL (44 1/2" bust)

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?
The instructions were very clear and easy to understand. I also had the help of Jennifer Stern herself from her PR course "Fit the Tee to a T". The video lessons are great. She demonstrates how to do all the alterations you could need as well as construction techniques on a serger.

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
I really like the adjustability of this pattern. The front and back top panels make it easier to do fit adjustments as well as change the look with different fabric choices.
I dislike that the multisized pattern is printed from a hand drawn master and it is difficult to follow your size line at times, particularly on the small sidde front panel.

Fabric Used:
A polyester print with glitter detail

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
FBA. I followed Jennifer Stern's instructions from the PR course and did the DD adjustment twice to fit my JJ bust and it worked out really well.
I also made extra hip room but cutting and slashing the bottom front and back panels.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
I will definitely be sewing this again many times. I have also reviewed the Vneck version (instructions for this are in the video class) which I think suits me better, so this is now my TNT t-shirt pattern. I highly recommend it.
Vneck tee review

Conclusion:
This a great pattern. I highly recommend it as well as her course.
