Sinmplicity 3634 Pattern Description: Misses tops, skirt, cardigan & pants
Pattern Sizing: 10-18
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? Yes
Were the instructions easy to follow? Yes.
Fabric Used: Turquoise matte jersey knit from Fabric.com
Pattern Alterations or any design changes you made: I cut a size 18 according to the finished bust measurements, but ended up removing ½” from the side seams. Also, I removed about 1+” from the sleeve circumference. Instead of just serging the other edge of the neckband and flipping to the inside, I serged and folded to the inside & stitched to neckline seam which would prevent the edge from flipping out. By folding the neckband it minimized the fullness of the cowl, however, I like the end result. All of the seams were serged and to finish the bottom of the blouse and sleeves, I used fusible hem tape and then final stitched.
Would you sew it again? I would like to try this pattern again and also thinking that it would be the perfect pattern for a relaxed tee. A great pattern and perfect for wardrobe building.
Conclusion: I am wearing it today and its comfortable and the perfect color to pair with beige/grey pinstripe pant.

I love that color! It goes great with those slacks. It looks incredibly comfy, too.
I love the classic look.
Great top and fabric color. I have this pattern and liked that top, too.
Just my style and color too.
Love the colour, the way our sky normally looks in summer. Not this year though..the rain keeps coming.
I love that color!
I L*VE the color!
yes, I love this color, its such a nice winter color and it looks like it feels amazing
Nice! Love your weekend cardigan too - I agree about the white sleeve contrast. When I saw it I wondered if you would flip it out like a French cuff or what, but it looks perfect the way it ended up.
Very versatile top! Love it with the pants! Great job on the boyfriend cardi, too!
I should try this pattern. It's very cute and perfect for the person who can't wear turtlenecks. Beautiful!
Great top - great fabric and colour!
Great colour. You have such an eye for matching fabric to design. Love it.
