A gorgeous and distinctive blouse, but how did you obtain the pattern? (Marfy patterns are not sold in Australia.)

Very nice. Congratulations on your first Marfy. I am sure you will get lots of compliments when you wear this, and its successors. This is a very cute shirt on you.

Lovely blouse, Sharon! And thank you for carefully explaining all the changes to your pattern. When you say "move back 1" on the sleeve" are you talking F to B rotation or hanging the sleeve higher up the shoulder seam? And which sleeve? I'm not seeing where the problem is.

Thank you ladies for your lovely comments. FreyaStark, I purchased the Marfy 2010/11 Catalogue early this year and this is one of the 10 free patterns that comes with the Catalogue. vwgrant, it is my left sleeve and yes it is the F to B rotation.
