I purchased this fabric in January this year. I remember it well, it was an extremely hot and uncomfortable day, and I'd just discovered a new fabric store to visit. The fabric I found was so 1960s in vibe and in my favourite colour - red, that I could not, not buy it. Downside, there was only enough to make a top. So when the current issue of Ottobre arrived, I knew exactly what should be made with this.
There is nothing difficult about making this pattern, it's beauty is in it's simplicity. Use a wild and adventurous fabric, like I did, or tone it down in another fabric. It is a fun and comfortable top to wear. I made no adjustments to this pattern. I just wish I had more of it to make a full dress. I had just enough to make underwear!
I know I've been quiet for a while. I got quite ill from bronchitis and felt I had to evaluate how I used my spare time and balance that with work. Starting a new job has not been easy, but, I think I have it sorted now.

Happy sewing everyone.
