This is the second thing I have made following a pattern. I added a bow to neckline and some velvet ribbon to the armholes and bottom of the top. I am really happy with this.

Hey – thanks for that camilaustral it is a bit looser than I would normally wear this type of top, that being said, I sort of dont mind that it is. I figured I would take it in if I had to, but now its done I am not going to bother cos I like it the way it is.
