Amy Butler's Lotus Tunic pattern has a choice of three lengths. I chose the cami length, The pattern was well written and easy to follow. The only problem I had was adding the bias around the bottom of the sleeve. It called for stitching in the ditch. I had to rip it out the first time and try again.
I used some fabric I had in my stash.
The cami length called for buttons down the back. All the other lengths have zippers.
I made covered buttons using the contrasting fabric.
Overall I'm please with the cami. Amy Butler's patterns are flattering to so many figures types. Each one I've seen on Flickr looks great! Next time I'd like to try the tunic length in some of Amy Butler's wonderful fabric.

Looks great on you. Love what you did with the buttons, will have to try that myself sometime.
I love the length and it's so flattering. Plus, Son is becoming quite the photographer!
You've done an absolutely fantastic job with this! And just look at your buttons!

Your cami looks amazing! Now I have another inspiration to draw from.
OMG - that is AWESOME! So pretty and so flattering! Wow!
Wow! The tunic turned out great! It looks great on you too. I love the fabric combination you used. Also, using the contrast fabric for the buttons is such a cute idea! I really want to make this top, but I don't know if I'll get around to it before the summer is over! If only there were more time in the day. :)
That's turned out wonderfully! Great job!
