Wow, @SewRuthieSews   what a brilliant friend you are!!   :love:   It looks great, hope Sylvia loves it.  And I'm definitely about three sizes larger than I was in 1982!

@SewRuthieSews  I've just popped over to pattern review and seen the great review you've posted there. The shirt looks so modern and the fabric is really cute. And it still fits your friend!

40 years ago I was a Top Shop size 10. Now, even with modern day 'sizeflation',  I couldn't squeeze into a size 10!

It's a really great story. Your friend most be chuffed with her 'new' shirt.  :thumb:
