Simplicity 1561

I was soooo daring last night!  I cut out this pattern, instead of tracing

It only cost me £1, so I wasn't too bothered.  There's a nice gathered top on it, (these seem to be all the rage) which I thought DD would like, so last night I made a toile.  Finished it at 6 this morning (rough sleep), and just need to insert the elastic, then I can check the size.

I had an idea that I could alter this into one of those tops with the frill around the top, - I made one for myself several centuries ago

Anyone made anything off this pattern?  It seems very easy, and lots of nightwear variations.

No, but E is precisely the nightie pattern I need!  There is a very good range of styles on there.

Now can I bring myself to use a tissue pattern again after the joys of Style Arc's heavier paper and pdf patterns on printer paper...?

Acorn, they were on sale at my local fabric shop, so at £1, I thought I'd give it a go.  I think there are some similar free pdf's online, but this will do me for now!
