Pattern Sizing: great

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, for a sewer who has some knowledge on techniques like adding a zip. would not recommend for an absolute beginner.

Fabric Used: 100% cotton lawn with a little crossways stretch

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: I shortened the zip, i found the length of zip specified in the pattern too long for me and it made the top stick out where my back starts to curve at the hips. I shortened it by 2".

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? Yes I would.

Conclusion: Nice easy pattern, very flattering to my body type. I am planning on using the pattern again, particularly the bodice section, to make a maxi dress.
