Have you made Amy Butler's Anna Tunic?

    Have you made Amy Butler's Anna Tunic?
    on: February 09, 2009, 09:05:41 PM
    Has anyone sewn the Anna Tunic?  Is it doable for an "advanced beginner?"  And would the style suit a curvy woman who typically wears size 12 tops?

    I have read the pattern review that was on the SMS blog last year, and it was really helpful.  Just looking for some more opinions.  Thanks in advance for any insights!

      No but I was wondering the same as you & I wear a size 12 also. I was looking at that pattern the other day wanting to buy it.

        I made it last summer- I was/am an advanced beginner.  Little hard at curvy parts but definitely doable.  I am a little smaller  My mom is about a size 10/12 on top, and she has made several.  She loves the pattern.  I don't think it looks as good on a curvy woman with the belt though.

          YOKE - I think the yoke is a bit tricky for beginners. I did a little tutorial on my blog:
