This might have been the neatest sewing I've ever done. The instructions were great, and it's finished so beautifully with French seams and bias binding on the neck.
I made this with a drapey rayon. Since I often use quilting cotton for a wearable muslin, I thought maybe I'd try using the "right" fabric.
I made the size 18, which is a bit tight given my measurements, but the instructions said there was a lot of ease. Sadly there wasn't enough ease, and it's a pretty tight fit.
I have also decided I do not like kimono style sleeves. I don't like the way the fabric lays around my armpits/bust. From here on, I will stick with set in sleeves or raglan.
