I'm more confident about the sewing part because of her detailed instruction, but a little nervous about making the pattern. Cal explained it very well, but I think I might cut it a little larger than suggested. That way if I haven't measured appropriately, I can adjust to make it smaller if needed.

I loved it! I"m very excited to finish my top. I've got so many ideas for different styles too. Cal does a fabulous job explaining everything too.
