    So many sleeveless tops and dresses. Love the styles but I cannot wear sleeveless any longer, don't have the arms for it. :(

      Wow. Just wow. If women stopped bodyshaming themselves imagine how much easier their lives would be. Go sleeveless, be cool and comfortable, let the haters hate that's their problem not yours

    Would love this top with capped sleeves. Even tiny sleeves just look that bit better on oldish arms!

    Thanks Colette. Really looking forward to some sleeved but stylish summer top patterns (NOT tunics, we have lots of those). For example, this Kate top would be great with some simple short sleeves. It's great to have some short but stylish tops for summer. Thanks for the great patterns.

    Love the pattern and contest. Can a person enter more than one finished product or more than one? Also how extreme can the variations to the pattern be? Thank you in advance for your answer

      Hi Elaine,
      Only one entry per person. Make what your heart desires.

    Great pattern and tempted to enter the competition, but tell me where did the model get those fantastic sandals?

    I, too, have aged arms but hot weather needs the ventilation of sleeveless: take a stand ladies, and be comfortable.

    Lovely pattern, good to know i'm not the only one looking for patterns that suit linen. I'd also love to see a short sleeved pattern, almost like a linen tshirt. Be great to have one with curves in the torso to give me some shape!
    Great blogs, too thank you.
