This looks really lovely Linda, I love the sleek waistline - is it finished with a facing instead of a waistband?

This looks great Linda! I have this on my list of things to sew this autumn. How did you find the sizing?

well I had to size down on the hips but I would suggest making a toile first but it was easy to alter before the facing went on but only if it's too big

Hi Linda, that's great advice, thank you. I've heard from a few people that they've found it comes up big but it's really helpful to know it's easy to adjust!

This looks fab Lesley. I have recently made the Simi in navy cord. It's a lovely pattern and I thought that I had got the sizing ok. However, after wearing it, it is definitely too big on the waist. I'll definitely have to look at that when I make it again.
