Hi Zoe! Thank you so much. I’m glad to hear that it might not be my fault that it came out a it too big…lol I guess I can look at it as a way to get practice on making alterations. 🙂

The top looks great 🙂 As for the pattern coming out too big, it is very hit and miss to be honest. I’m currently making a new look top and I cut out my regular size and it was way too small! Other times I’ve cut out the next size up just to make sure and it has come out huge, you never know really.

Yay Krista! I hope it works out for you. I added 2 inches to the bodice under the chest. 🙂

You’ve inspired me! I bought this pattern and am getting ready to try it. So, I’m wondering, did you add 2″ to the bodice under the chest or did you add a little in the chest area, and a little below? Help, I haven’t sewed since jr. high. But, I’m so excited to give it another try.
