Very clear instructions with detailed video and tips along the way. Perfect for new sewers like myself who own, but have never used a rolled hem foot or worked with tricky fabrics like rayon. I also really appreciate the neck hole measurements. It can’t cut a neckline to save my life. It’s the most frustrating part of the Basic Top pattern. This tutorial shows you how to create it using proper measurements.

I've made two--one in rayon crinkle, another in cotton gauze. Great for cool summer evenings and a perfect "palate cleanser" after sewing a more involved project.

This is a very easy and stylish wrap! Definitely will be making 1 or more of these for myself.
