So it's definitely not too low because of your enlarging the pattern. I ended up wearing a plain tank top underneath for some modesty. It's difficult keeping the neckline up while holding a baby!

I would really like to sew like that if I had the time. I have really appreciated your quest for the perfect summer top. I would really like to sew like that if I had the time.

I've seen others making items from the book you are using... How hard is it to follow the patterns? I'm just curious, I've never tried to make something when the instructions weren't in English. Could be a fun challenge? I love the color on you. It did photograph nicely. and you can really showcase great necklaces with it too.

From the picture, anyway. I agree, maybe some lace on this one and then redraw the neckline a smidge narrower? Now I have to get that book, just for that pattern :).

But if you have to keep on tugging up, that's no fun. Oh the bows look sweet though, but I really like your top, can’t see it indeed on the picture if the neckline is too wide.

Plus, wider necks leave more skin uncovered for coolness in the hot summer. But bra-peeking is no good. At least for this one, could you add a little ruffle to the inside of the neckline along the boobs ... like lace or something?

Very flattering neckline. If you have to adjust it, don't go too crazy because it looks great in the photo. SUPERcute top on you. Very flattering neckline.
