Good morning! I have another summer project to share. The pattern is Simplicity 3789. Before starting I did not take into account that, while most patterns run quite large, Simplicity does not. So-o, I cut out a 14, like usual, put it together and it was too big. I took it apart, cut it down to a 12 and put it together again. Still too big. Took it apart and left it for a while. I came back to it later, cut it down to a 10 and just made it. Yep, that's right, didn't try it on or anything, just did it. But I think it worked! Here is the result:
Shirt Front
The fabric is from Hancock's.
Shirt Back Collar and Shoulder After some self debate I decided to do flat felled seams and I really liked the way it turned out. Side Front I only did two things differently from what the pattern said. I shortened the length two inches and I didn't use any interfacing.
I'm working on a tutorial for the
panel skirts. It will probably take me another couple of days to get it together though. See you around!

Charming! I love that fabric... it makes me long for warm weather.
This is beautiful fabric. You must have the patience of Job to take it apart and re-do it three times - I think I would have cried!
But now you have a beautiful blouse all ready for summer! The quality is evident even in pictures!
Lovely! The fabric is very pretty.
It's beautiful! I love the colour! You have a lovely blog! :) Have a beautiful day!
How lovely! I have been looking for inspiration for blouses lately, since I'm in need of some new ones for springtime (and nursing a new baby!) :) Yours is so beautiful! I love the style and the fabric you used for it.
What a lovely blouse!!!
