I love the many ways this pattern can be varied

I have now - with great success - used this pattern for 4 very different kinds of tunics/tops - one I even made a little longer ... The front panel is perfect for decorating with embroidery designs and then you can make a gorgeous, wearable fabric collage with the gems from your stash. I am definitely going to make more - next time for Fall and Winter where I think it will make a perfect vest over a long-sleeved t-shirt. This pattern is highly recommendable :-)

Not for plus sizes

I’m not sure anyone has tested the plus size version. The armholes are too small and it sits all wrong over the bust. Annoyingly the links to the posts on how to “increase the arm hole” are broken.
