When I first saw your picture in the blouse, I went WOW! Wonderful color, breezy, comfortable, but sophisticated. It looked so good I went to the pattern info and about fell out. I would have never picked that pattern, and I admire your ability to invision the alterations you made to produce a gorgeous project. Very interesting and informative review. I am ispired to take a second look at the lines of some patterns I might not have tried in the past.

Belinda, this is a beautiful blouse - it's a great example of what can be done with care and planning. Such a beautiful color. All in all, inspirational! Thank-you and have fun wearing it and collecting compliments!

Oooh, - noice! I've been eyeing this one since it first came out, but hadn't yet decided on modifications to tone it down a bit - yours looks perfect!

This is fabulous and the detailed work for a "quick" summer blouse is amazing. So many things to say about this, the collar, the buttonloops, all your changes made this your own. Beautiful

The collar and neckline treatment frame your face beautifully. You should sew another!
