You may recall that I was lucky enough to be one of the testers of the 'Lend Me Your Shoulder Top' by the lovely
Rhonda Buss. Fantastic news is that Rhonda is now selling this pattern and others in her
Etsy Shop. So if you want to make your own you can!
This is a cool top which is the same front and back and has different sleeves and a cowl neckline to give an off the shoulder type or cowl effect depending on how you wear it.
It's great with jeans for casual evenings out, I've already worn it quite a few times, which for a test garment is a bonus. The red was a happy accident, becuase I had red on the serger already I pulled some matching fabric from the stash.
I did do a full bicep alteration and increased the body by one size (I am bigger than the Large) so watch out for this if you are not a teeny person. The alterations are easy enough though as there are only 3 pattern pieces.

Coming out of lurking to say you look fabulous! And the top does too!
This is a really lovely piece you've made. The red makes you look great.
Ruthie, You are the best. Thanks so much for the lovely post. You really shine in red. Wear that color as much as you can.
This is very sharp! Red is definitely a good color for you.
