Beautiful top with a hint of Nautical

Initially disappointed because I looked at the sheets given on the online to get my fabric amount and it listed for a size L that if it was 145 cm wide I needed 1.5 m of fabric but when I looked at pattern sheets it required 2.5m  By this time I had ordered my fabric and it was already on route to me so unable to up the quantity ! However I was able to get the pieces out of the 1.5 with a bit of juggling!!
The cuffs fall at my elbow and luckily I had used cord elastic for the button loops so allow the cuffs to open slightly as I bend my arm – next make will be without cuffs and a voile material .
Very pleased with the make – this first is a slightly stretchy poplin material.
