Tester feedback:

Cath: It is simply stunning. I can see myself making this again and again over the years.

Natsu: The instruction was very clear with details illustrations. I liked the bust ruffles are integrated to the front/back pattern pieces so that the shirred bust would be very comfortable. And I really enjoyed shirring! I was kind of afraid of doing it but it was so fun so I'll make more shirred garments!

Lisa: It's a really cute design, and I'm happy with my finished top. It fits nicely - the cups in particular are done well. It looks very romantic and feminine without being too overt, which is wonderful. This was actually my first shirring project and it's definitely inspired me to do more.
