Love this design. I like all of the top stitching, especially on the neck facings. The hem facing is a nice feature, adding a little weight to my slightly sheer fabric. The back button was easy to add. And those gorgeous sleeves...
I found the instructions well-written and it was a reasonably easy sew but I took extra time over the details to get a nice finish.
Size: My upper bust measurement is size 10 with all other measurements in the size 12 range. I made a straight size 10, regular length and it's wearable but a bit too roomy for my liking. (I'm 160cm (5'2") tall but with a longish torso and the regular length worked for me.) I'll go down to size 8 for the next one.

My absolute favourite top

I just love this top for its ease of sewing, many variations and a beautifully drafted pattern. Very easy to follow directions, everything about this make is divine. I have several tops now and I'm planning on making it into a part of a formal two piece outfit in silk for my sons wedding - very happy PE customer

Gorgeous top

I bought this pattern mainly because of the sleeves - which are fabulous - but the body is actually more flattering than I expected. It sews together easily, especially when you cut the front on the fold and skip the button and loop at the back like I did! I love that there are different necklines to choose from. I found that, although my measurements indicated I don’t need the FBA, the front hem pulled up a bit so am making my second top with the FBA version.

Great top

Love this top, the sleeve is really different to do, I’m an average sewer and I found the top really stress free. I made a toile out of calico and I love it so I’m going to dye it then I made a double gauze, love that too.

Be Mine Balloon Sleeve

My first time using PE Patterns and I absolutely LOVE them. The instructions are the best I’ve ever seen, very detailed. I am an experienced sewist and I can’t tell you how some instructions assume you know everything. And the pattern design is very up to date on fashion trends. Will be buying more in the near future.

Welcome to the PE Patterns family Hillary! We're thrilled to hear that you loved the Be Mine Balloon Sleeve Top Thank you so much for your feedback regarding our instructions. Happy sewing, and we can't wait to see what you make next!
