I'm hoping not, though this indeed might be it for 2012 sewing - I work a half-day tomorrow, there's new year eve festivities planned in the evening, and I've a maximum of 2 free hours in between.

| Yes indeed, I do have a giant pink flower on my breast. |
Before I left for Germany, one evening, I pulled out the November 2012 issue of Burda Style, traced out the 136A top, and sewed it up. The fabric was part of a G-Street haul two years ago. Like everyone else who has made this top up, I raised the side seam to close the arm hole a bit.
Unlike other quick and easy projects that haven't worked well, I'm pretty happy with how this one turned out. I desperately need tops - they are a big wardrobe hole. Burda Style has been drafting a bunch of easy, yet interesting top patterns that I've been meaning to make, and I'm glad I got to this one.

I've another version cut up - watch for that in 2013!

Blogger at my comment so I'm trying again. Hope it doesn't duplicate now.
I think the pink flower placement is perfect. Really dramatic and does NOT make me think about your bust. lol Love the pink tree too.
Happy New Year!
Love your top! I keep seeing this pattern pop up - I may have to give it a try myself!
Cute top. Love the print. Happy new year!
