I saw this on here and had to make it! The pattern making is very simple, although I found that I could've done with missing out the two back panels completely (I think I may have messed up taking my measurements, either that or I lost weight between measuring and completion). The actually assembly is a bit tricky. I used proper plastic boning because I couldn't find stiff enough detergent bottles like was recommended. And sewing bias binding in place is harder than I expected (it's a little untidy, but not enough to make it unwearable). And the eyelets, although fun to hammer in, don't stay in very well (although the mistake may have been to get cheap ones - maybe I should've splashed out a little). Other than those few minor gripes, which I'm sure I can improve with practise, I'm pretty pleased with the final product.
