I love love love this shirt, I've made it a million times. I never can get a snap on right though (I have no industrial press!) I have found a sew on snap works best for me!

I made size 80 and size 98. No problems, no modifications, although I did use a sew-on snap cuz I have crappy pliars and couldn't get through all the binding with them for the closure.

I got the snap on with industrial snap press, but I agree with the others that it isn't easy! It does have a lot of support though through all those layers of binding. It is a cute top and seems to fit true to sizing for Ottobre. My DD is wearing an 86 in the photo.
Not shown in the photos is that there is a little keyhole area in the back finished with binding and closing with the snap. It is really cute. Sleeve caps are gathered, as is the front neckline. The variations suggested in the instructions are a sleeve edge gathered and then bound or finished with a rolled hem and then with elastic to gather it and make a little ruffle.

Pretty much same things as before. I did sew-on snaps because the pliers don't work and I don't have a snap press. I made a 116cm and an 86cm. I just added 1/4" extra to make the bigger size, except I just added a touch to the neckline and I think I added 1/2" extra to both hems. Great pattern!!!
FOE was much easier for me for the neckline this time.

Lovely pattern. I did size 80 with 86 length and the fit is nice on my DD.
