New ZealandAwesome stylish top. I have had some many compliments and friends wanting one too! Easy sew. Sits beautifully. Dress up or down. Will be making more including the dress. Thanks tsr. You guys are so clever and inspirational ❤
New ZealandI particularly loved the neckline for the Egret Dress. So simple to construct with such great effect. Next time I would probably go a size smaller as I felt the armholes were a little low and the dress was a little too full for my liking. Superb instructions as always by TSR.
New ZealandThis was a surprisingly easy, quick sew. I had it in my mind that the neck would be tricky-but it wasn't! Got so many compliments when I wore it to work
United StatesI promised a silk blouse to my niece. She chose Egret. I’ve worked up a toile— the pattern was simple and straightforward. Now to make a fabric shopping date with her to choose some silk!
AustraliaExcellent pattern. I made 2 changes in that I took the side seams in a little more and inserted narrower elastic around the neck.my next make will be in silk.
