After taking a deep breath and thinking about the Styla Reine Top I realized I love the sleeves. I have previously made the McCall's 7122 raglan sleeve top so why not frankenpattern the two!
I like the higher neckline of the McCall's 7122 and the curved hem. It has a center back seam for my sway back too. I went down to a size 18 sleeve of the Styla Reine and just layed it over the McCall's sleeve and not using a sleeve cuff.
The fabric was a Poly/Lycra Sweater knit from my stash, purchased from Fabric Mart Fabrics (of course!). The fabric
I would call this a WIN and I love this top!

Definitely a win. The neckline of 7122 combined with the Reine sleeves is perfection. Nice job and great idea.
