Sweetheart Top #1 * Jalie 2794
I have been wanting to make this top for as long as the pattern has been out (2007)
and now that I have - I love it! It is such a pretty top.


There are so many wonderful reviews written up at Pattern Review on this top and I think I've had the same success as everyone else who has made it. For my first one I wanted to see how the fit would be without alterations to the pattern, so I didn't make any- (other than making full length sleeves). Many reviewed that the neckline was low. I figured that would be an issue for me too. I'm thrilled to say, that this is the "only" change I will make, is in the neckline, as I do find it somewhat low. I am very happy with the overall fit of this top, ( l will post a picture wearing it).
I plan on making another one as soon as I finish this post and I will raise the neckline.
The fabric I used is a knit I bought at Tissus Claudiany in Quebec. (Does it look familiar?)
I'm sure you have all seen the Sewing Article: "Best Patterns for 2008" by Diane Egelston
at Pattern Review. It's a very interesting article.
Jalie 2794 was the # 1 Pattern!
