McCall's 5590
& McCall's 6499

2 5/8 Yards of Fabric

Pattern Description: Pullover tops have elastic waist variations, back neck slit, button/thread loop and narrow hem. A: stitching line forms sleeves and purchased trim and bow. B: sleeveless, side panel and flange (On crosswise grain of fabric).
I made view B 
Pattern Sizing: 7-14

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

YES!
Were the instructions easy to follow? SUPER easy. I was confused with attaching the side panel & flange but I believe it was because I was sleepy. When I went to finish it up it was easy lol.

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? My daughter loves this style shirt so I knew she would love it when she saw it.

Fabric Used: Poly

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: None

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? She has already requested another one so I will be making this again.

Conclusion: Great pattern if you love this style top.

I won't review this skirt because it was literally, two pieces, four darts and a zipper. SUPER easy lol. I actually want to make one for myself lol.

    Hey, looks like you have a new model now for all your great sewing projects. You are an awesome seamstress. Time for your own boutique?
    Definitely your model is your “mini-me”. She’s so cute and is so tall now.
