Good Basic PatternReviewed by Lindy Stumpff (Verified Buyer) on 10/30/2021Pattern came together easily and quickly. No problems or issues with this pattern and it came out looking like photo. This pattern can be used successfully with lots of different fabric.Was this helpful?Joy to sew!Reviewed by Tami Owen on 10/24/2021Great pattern and quick sew! I made large size with D cup in view A, but with view B neckline. Made a wearable muslin and love it. I changed the legs of the dart to point towards my apex. I like the facings and how it is longer in the back. Next time I will lengthen it a little since I am 5’9” and try the long-sleeve version in a cotton/linen blend. I also used contrasting topstitching thread in the bobbin when I sewed the neckline facing to the shirt.Was this helpful?In Love!!Reviewed by Gail Glaneman (Verified Buyer) on 10/01/2021I am just in LOVE with this pattern! I started with a muslin, then on to a printed lawn and now a chambray. I did go up a size, for fear that it wouldn't be roomy enough, but I am going to go back down for my next try. I agree that while I typically don't like drop shoulder, this one is very flattering and comfortable. I strongly recommend this for beginner to advanced, as the possibilities here seem endless.Was this helpful?Lovely to sew and lovely to wearReviewed by Jenny Ladley (Verified Buyer) on 09/29/2021I purchased this pattern the day before NZ went into a snap Covid-19 lock down for three weeks. It was a pleasure to sew this top while staying at home. I have made three versions of it so far. Super easy to make and the instructions are easy to follow (as always). This pattern will be a firm favorite to make and wear for years to come.Was this helpful?My Dream Come True Sewing PatternReviewed by Sandra Wylie (Verified Buyer) on 07/02/2021While on a trip to the UK I purchased a top similar to the one in this pattern. I wished I had bought it in every color available. When I saw this pattern I knew I had to buy it. I have made 2 so far, one of each neck style. I am now waiting for my linen delivery to make a few more. It was a pleasure to sew this pattern, totally stress free and great instructions. I also love the neck and hemline options. In my opinion there is NOTHING not to love about this pattern. Thank you for a pattern with wonderful design options including cup sizes and the great instructions6 of 6 customers found this helpful.Was this helpful?Nice patternReviewed by Birgit (Verified Buyer) on 06/29/2021Easy style, easy to make and very nice result. Love the different cup sizes, as with all other patterns I had to move the bust darts, other than that no alterations. True to size and simple and nice to wear.2 of 3 customers found this helpful.Was this helpful?Verdun TopReviewed by Jane Gerhart (Verified Buyer) on 06/27/2021I love the wide range of cup sizes. Pattern is well-drafted and sews up beautifully. I like the sewn-down facings - no more facing slip-ups! A nice pallet for beautiful fabric.3 of 3 customers found this helpful.Was this helpful?VerdunReviewed by Annette (Verified Buyer) on 06/25/2021I love this pattern. I made the long sleeved version in cotton. Drop shoulder patterns don’t usually suit me but this one does. I really like the hem facings and the curve from front to the back hem is beautiful. My next one will be lightweight linen, short sleeves.2 of 2 customers found this helpful.Was this helpful?My First Pattern from You!Reviewed by Suzy Brunson (Verified Buyer) on 06/24/2021Loved the easy style, great fit for me. Made short sleeve using two different fabrics....facings were a print and body a pin dot. Easy to follow, happy I ordered. Will make again for sure.1 of 1 customers found this helpful.Was this helpful?Another Fun Pattern!Reviewed by Cindy C (Verified Buyer) on 06/23/2021I knew when I first saw the photos for this pattern that I would like it. Its casual attitude fits my lifestyle, for one thing. And I had a couple fabrics in my stash that I thought would work well with it. (They did!) As a plus, it is pretty easy to sew, with so few pieces. I highly recommend this pattern.1 of 1 customers found this helpful.Was this helpful?Verdun TopReviewed by Barb (Verified Buyer) on 06/20/2021I absolutely love this pattern. The first one I made was just a little too small (wishful thinking) but fit my good friend beautifully. Then I made one a size bigger with the same cup size and it fit me beautifully! I only had to raise it up a little at the shoulder seam. It was so easy to make and the neck and hem facings add a lot to the classic look. I have some plaid linen to make my next one. Then at the end of summer I'll try the long sleeved version.2 of 2 customers found this helpful.Was this helpful?In this video, Liesl introduces you to the Verdun Woven T-Shirt pattern.
