Being a person that never wears jeans, only dresses, I though, "WOW, that's one short dress. I hope she doesn't drop anything that she'll have to pick up." Then I went back and read the entire thing and realized it was a top. LOLLOLLOL
    Heehee! It's to be more tunic length, but being tall, it doesn't quite go there, but that's ok.

    Add some extra length, maybe a little extra width as it goes down, and I wonder if that would work to make it a dress???

    You did an awesome job, the seams look very professional, and I LOVE the top! You could stay at home and wear it for a dress.........

    You transitioned very well from quilting to clothing. Your seams are great and you will wear this with pride on your date. Great job.
