Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
Yes, with some changes as per below.
Were the instructions easy to follow?
Very easy!
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
Nothing in particular to like or dislike. Its a really simple, straight forward sew.
Fabric Used:
As per my blog, I used a art-silk sari found in South Africa. For the contrast I used a fine stretch tulle.
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
I made version E however I left off the sleeves & used the stretch tulle instead of regular fabric for the upper contrast. I also had to take in the waist to give it more shape.
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
Yes, I think some fun could be had with experimenting with different forms of contrast to the upper part of this tunic.
Please visit my blog for more pics & info. Thanks.
