As it turns out I am really pleased with the results. I found the neckline of the top quite tricky when I did it the first time round (7 months ago) but for some unknown reason didnt have too many issues with it today. I absolutely love the lettuce leaf edging (or is it cabbage leaf???) and considering its the very first time I've tried it, I'm stoked with how it turned out. The tshirt ended up being quite easy to make but the ruffled sleeves make it look far more complicated.
The pants were also very easy to make (and I love the material, so summery). I did slightly stuff up one pocket but thats only because I'm a twit sometimes not because the pattern was in anyway complicated.

wow it is a cute outfit and I love the sleeves and all the edging on the top!
awesome top!
*sigh* yet another thing to add to my list of things to try!
WOW! I love that top - I have been a fanb of those edgings for a while but not brave enough to attempt it yet. This might jut be the kick up the backside I need to make me try it.
Love it. Just gorgeous. Susan
Gorgeous - I've done the shorts that go with this top from Otto too.
I love the different coloured threads on each layer of the sleeves - I'd never be dedicated enough to re-thread that many times to do that - but it looks great!
Gorgeous outfit! I love lettuce edging too.
