Description
A top which had to be drafted from a basic slope. Which has to be fitted on self before proceeding to the actual pattern drafting. I wanted to teach myself about fitting and basic pattern alteration. I also altered the basic plan a little by adding to the length of the top as I like to wear my tops on the hip. Instead of stopping at the waist.
It’s not that hard, as long as you can spare the time and can do a little thinking ahead about the finishing of the piece, as seams, and instructions are not clear to me (japanese is not my lingo).
Material Notes
Cotton muslin, will be proceeding with a cotton silk poplin. For the collar a silk organza.

Thanx for the positivie reactions. I’m still a sewing novice so I miss a certain finesse. But these patterns let you get a way with a lot, as long as you have the time to adjust and readjust. Will keep you posted

Waow, great job! I often flick through the two Magic pattern volumes. They are great although there is one I prefer, don’t remember which one. The author of the book is using a small mannequin (the way Madeleine Vionnet did) to realize her patterns and working with a scaled down version seems to best way to use scarp fabric before THE definite cut, sigh…..I wish I had time to experiment !
