pattern review – the Madelyn shirt by Violette Field Threads

Today I’m bringing you my review of the Madelyn Shirt pdf pattern by Violette Field Threads. When I offered to review a pattern for them, I didn’t specify any particular pattern… doing this often makes me sew something that I wouldn’t otherwise pick. I must admit that I probably wouldn’t have chosen this particular pattern, but now I’m so glad I’ve made it. I love this little outfit I made Cadie.

The Madelyn Shirt is a sweet sleeveless top that is completely lined. I made it with medium weight knit fabrics and the end result is a very high quality top. 

There are adorable buttons on the back, but you don’t have to make buttonholes!

I honestly can’t decide which I like better… the front or the back. Which do you like most?
