I used size large
Materials:
Pattern calls for a medium weight woven fabric around 1.5 yards.
I used a scrap piece of quilters cotton, lined with interfacing and toped with a shiny sheer fabric I got from fabric wholesale direct.
All materials used were from my stash, no new purchases were made for this project.

Thoughts:
First thing I changed is that I gave it a larger seam allowance. I'm sure 3/8 works great but I prefer 5/8 or larger.
Because of the fabric I chose I needed to interface it so I decided to line it as well. Mainly because the interfacing I had was sew in and also even if it was fusible it needed a lining.
I elected not to do a closure at this time because I think it sits well on my shoulders without one but if I change my mind at a later date it would be no problem to make one.
All together it created good looking top. Now to decide if I want sleeves or no sleeves.
