I wavered for ages before cutting out this top -- I love the colour but was worried it would read "scrubs". I'm still not convinced it doesn't but I do like the style of this pattern. The only changes I made from the the last time was to add yet another inch, this time to the bottom pieces. I think the length is good for me now.
The fabric is Kaffe Fassett in Aegean from Mad About Patchwork. It's soft and light and easy to work with but I don't know if I would recommend it for clothes. I made this top before going away and I've only worn it a couple of times but it's already starting to pill. I've found the same thing with my Tova. It's a bummer because I'm not really big on prints but I find a flat solid colour is, well, flat while shot cottons have such lovely variations. Still, it's a nice light summer top that's not a t-shirt so it's a win!
