I've been wanting to make this pattern for so long! When I had enough fabric left over from my yellow dress, I decided that now was the time to try out this pattern! :) Unfortunately, I didn't have much fabric to work with, so I had to cut the the pattern out on the bias--which made me nervous. However, it doesn't seem to have affected the way the top fits.

I made a size 8, with no alterations . . . it is super easy to make, and has great instructions--it came together like a dream.

This top is comfortable and classy--I am happy with it, and am definitely going to make some of the other versions of this top.
