I've finally finished my Butterick B5988 top in navy viscose with pleat details.
Those who have followed me for a while will know that commercial patterns and i don't always get along. I usually have to make a lot of adjustments to the pattern to get it to fit my body proportions. To combat this, I merged my block pattern with the butterick one to get a more custom fit (and it saved a lot of time too!)
Something to remember if you're having trouble with your own commercial patterns. Consider creating a custom drafted pattern or take a pattern from a favourite garment; this will give you a pattern block to merge with the commercial one and will prevent you having to make a lot of adjustments :)
