I am catching up on my previous makes :) This sequin top is what I made for New Year's Eve. I really don't sew with occasions in mind but New Year's Eve does deserve a new dress or a top at least. And sequinned!! I do love sequin fabric.
Pattern:
Changed the length - made it hip length.
Shortened the sleeve. I also took out some ease in the sleeve cap. I did this by drawing a short dart - taping it and re-drawing the sleeve.
There are 2 bust darts and it is not very fitted at the waist and hips. I did not want to use zippers.

The sewing was actually a breeze. Using the walking foot and needle No. 14, I used both my hands to guide the fabric slowly. Sequins do not scare me anymore.
The sleeves and neckline are bias bound. I also bound the seams since there is no lining attached.
It was ready in time for New Year's Eve but like the past few years we stayed at home. I did wear this top hoping these sequins would make it a sparkly 2018. Little joys of life.
