Notes	I agree with the other comments, not very happy with this one. The front neckline is too deep and also shows my bra. I fixed that by raising the shoulder. But the flounce sleeves are just wrong, they're at least 1.5 times the length of the hole, even after making adjustments for the raised shoulder. So they're wrapped around and don't really flounce. Second issue is just how unflattering the design is. I should've known really but the seam falls right across lady parts and I just couldn't wear it like that. So I had some fabric left and added a further panel on the bottom to make it longer. Now I wear it with a belt, pulled up and over it. Nothing like what the original design is but at least it's wearable this way.
