After our pattern field trip this last week, I have been itching to start one. So, I chose this one. (I tried to put the picture in, but blogger is definately having issues....so you'll have to click the link.) I am doing style D---with A sleeves. I got it cut out this morning and then started sewing for a bit this afternoon. It only goes up to a size 4 and even though Hannah is a size 5, it is working out.
