I really liked this top shape but I found the sleeve width and over arm length could do with adjusting and a bit restrictive, when you lift your arms the hem does lift but the top has enough length not to show any flesh!
I will be making this again

I plan to make another but this time I will finish all the edges before I sew it together.

I have just finished making the Wilma top, it looks nice, it wasn’t too difficult, after watching the you tube tutorial. The only downside it is very restrictive when moving your arms, the gusset doesn’t allow enough movement, looks odd when you lift your arms.

I made this in a quite thick linen, similar colour as the model picture. I really like the finished garment, but I think I made it a size or two to big. It has a quite loose fit. I will make it smaller next time. One thing to beware of is to have enough fabric. I found the patternpieces to big to cut on fold, so I had to cut one piece at a time. The construction is pretty straight forward, once you figuere out where the gusset goes (and not do as I did the first time – sew it into the front dart.. ). Style Arc has a video on Youtube how to sew the gusset. All in all I am very happy with it and I will make it again.

I made this in a linen, really like the sleeve detail. It ended up quite big around the neck even though I went down a size. I will probably make it again but will cut the neck a lot smaller but overall am happy with it.

How Do I Know What Size I Am?
Choosing your pattern size is the most important step and we will help you determine this with these easy to follow steps.
When taking your measurements ensure that you take them against your skin and not over clothing. One can wear a comfortable bra and knickers whilst measuring, as this will provide you with the most accurate measurements.
Tape measure has to sit firmly around the points you are measuring. But be careful not to pull it too tight, as this will give you the incorrect size.
When measuring circumferences (B, C, D, E) it is important to note that the tape measure must remain parallel to the floor. It is sometimes best to take the measurements in front of a mirror; this will help you see the angle of the tape measure.
You will only require the basic body measurements to determine your pattern size which is indicated on our mannequin below:
A. Shoulder Breadth
Place the tape at the edge of the shoulder. Measure along the top of the shoulder blade/across the highest point of the shoulders to the other edge, following the natural slope and allow an extra finger for ease of any movement.
B. Upper Arm Girth
This point is taken as a circumference at your widest point of your upper arm.
C. Bust
This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the fullest part of your chest.
D. Waist
This point is taken as a circumference and taken at the smallest part of your waist.
E. Hip
This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the widest part of your hips.
