This’s one of Vogues’ very easy pattern… Nothing complicated at all. I just wanted to make something quick and V8581 called my attention.

Fabric: Some kind of knit from either Walmart or Fabricland, has been in my stash for sometime

Pattern Description: Tunics A, B, C have front and back upper gathers, neck binding, lower elastic casing and raglan sleeve variations. A: sleeves with elastic casing. B: three-quarter length flared sleeves. C: gathered sleeves and sleeve binding. I made view C

Pattern Sizing: B5 , size 8-16. Cut my regular 14

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?: Pretty much

Were the instructions easy to follow: I didn’t follow the instruction . These are what I did differently, based on Sharon’s review
(1) I sewed the back, front and sleeves together and then pull for gathering
(2) I folded the neck facing into 2  sewed it in and serged the seam allowance together…Viola very simple

Pattern Alterations or any design changes you made:  I raised the neck by 1″ by popular review and lengthened by another 1″…

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? Nothing to dislike

Conclusion: Easy patten, and a few hour project.. Not sure if I will be making it again but highly recommend.
This will get a lot of wear in the winter because is hot around here now however I wore it on Wednesday when the temperature was a bit low and really loved it.

Have a great weekend!!!!
