The shirt looks really good. I have this pattern in my stash (as I got it on sale) and now I'm encouraged to make it up soon. It's good to hear the pieces went together well. Good luck with the Batik version.

Your blouse is beautiful. I really like the fabric choice. It looks like an expensive RTW to me.

Gorgeous blouse, and a wonderful, thorough review. With this blouse I mayfbe inspired to try a Miyake pattern one of these days. Thanks!

Shona, I wore my version of that shirt just yesterday, glad to get out of winter clothes and into "transitional" pieces. Mine is a very heavy linen, now a quite faded black, and that, too, hangs really well. I used my usual size, and it's rather long (I'm 5'6")--in this weight fabric, I'd never tuck it in, but rather wear it as a loose jacket. I agree that the directions are pretty good, for the most part, but I made this several years ago so I don't quite remember--I guess I never really liked how the collar came out, but that could have been operator error. And thanks for the tip about snaps! I must have missed that, too, or just never remembered to go back and do it. I wonder if it's too late?!

Shona, the shirt looks fabulous on you. Excellent fabric choice. I envy you who can wear these styles (I'm too shrimpy for them).

Excellent review, Shona. Thanks for the detailed information. This is vintage Miyake, one of my favourite blouses. Your version looks fabulous!

I love this shirt on you. I also like the fabric choice. Thanks for the thorough review. Some day I will get up my courage and try something like this.

Too much information! I ended up skipping most of it.

Shona, Wow! I love the blouse and the wonderful, detailed review. I have just purchased this pattern, and will refer back to your comments many times, I'm sure, as I make my blouse. I hope it turns out as well as yours. Thanks again.

Thanks. Love your shirt. I just bought this pattern based on more recent review I read earlier this evening. I can see great possibilities. Appreciated your tips about interfacing.
