   I have made 3 tops and 2 dresses in this pattern. Easy and comfortable with just enough detail. Works well in a crisp cotton through to linen and rayons. A flattering pattern that can be dressed up or down what ever the occassion. Stunning in black suede like fabric with a short pearl necklace or layers of other contrasing neck wear. Equally flattering in a linen or cotton for a hot summer day.

   This pattern is very flattering. I made the tunic it in a faille and the drape is beautiful. I did shorten the length.
   I am now in the process of sewing it again in a light linen look knit.
   Highly recommend this pattern, the neck detail takes top from simple to superb.

   The twisted neck bank is a nice detail, and it’s the only part of this pattern that’s a little challenging. I used a cotton print and shortened the pattern to a top length. Looking forward to making this again in a solid.

Choosing your pattern size is the most important step and we will help you determine this with these easy to follow steps.

1. When taking your measurements ensure that you take them against your skin and not over clothing. One can wear a comfortable bra and knickers whilst measuring, as this will provide you with the most accurate measurements.
2. Tape measure has to sit firmly around the points you are measuring. But be careful not to pull it too tight, as this will give you the incorrect size.
3. When measuring circumferences (B, C, D, E) it is important to note that the tape measure must remain parallel to the floor. It is sometimes best to take the measurements in front of a mirror; this will help you see the angle of the tape measure.
4. You will only require the basic body measurements to determine your pattern size which is indicated on our mannequin below:

A. Shoulder Breadth

Place the tape at the edge of the shoulder. Measure along the top of the shoulder blade/across the highest point of the shoulders to the other edge, following the natural slope and allow an extra finger for ease of any movement.

B. Upper Arm Girth

This point is taken as a circumference at your widest point of your upper arm.

C. Bust

This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the fullest part of your chest.

D. Waist

This point is taken as a circumference and taken at the smallest part of your waist.

E. Hip

This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the widest part of your hips.
