Did you make the top a little longer because your mom's style is a little different than yours, or is she taller than you?

I finally decided to come forward after someone made some unkind remarks. Your blog has convinced me to buy Shape Shape and Drape Drape and a number of other patterns that look so much nicer than what the hand drawn pictures do. This top is stunning example. I love it. Vogue is on sale this week at Hancock's (USA) for $3.99 (US DOLLAR) so I plan to get one tomorrow. Keep up the great blog, wonderful photo's and sewing tips. I recently inherited four huge boxes of patterns from the 60's and 70's. I am going to have to go through and see if there is anything in there you might like to use. They are one size patterns and not my size, the sizes 8-12 (USA) which looks near your size. I will keep you posted.Sharonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1374783908598391491.post-79205946195416704402012-11-24T13:45:57.871+08:002012-11-24T13:45:57.871+08:00Can I join your family - Please....
