Beek said... I think both of your blouses turned out beautifully. The details appear to have required much time, patience and skill. Nice work! 3/12/08 11:09 AM
Marji said... 6" of wearing ease is ridiculous! In the photos anyway, your tops look wonderful, so all that you did to save them worked. Kudos to you. 3/12/08 12:36 PM

squirrellypoo said... Well done for making such a beautiful blouse out of such a huge starting point! I love all the pintucks and the pearl buttons - I think you ended up with a better blouse than New Look intended anyhow! 3/12/08 1:18 PM
marpratt said... I envy your patience and wow, did it ever pay off. This looks like an extremely expensive designer blouse. It looks beautiful on you. 3/12/08 5:03 PM
Ronda Rae said... I have this pattern but haven't made it yet. I'm glad I read your review first! Both shirts look really nice and the fit is very good on them. 3/12/08 5:46 PM
Patti B said... Your blouses look super on you and I believe you must receive the prize for patience. I think I need a weeping chair -- sounds so much better than the closet! 3/12/08 8:31 PM
ColorMeHome said... Thanks for the great review. Your blouse still turned out beautiful! 3/13/08 0:55 AM
Athene said... Your blouses look wonderful. Thank you for the very informative review - I have the pattern and will have to make sure and reread your review when I go to sew the pattern. 3/13/08 3:12 AM
CreativeDiva said... Nice job! I'm glad I read your review before cutting it out. I will pay attention to the allowed ease. 3/13/08 5:37 PM
Sew4Fun said... Both tops look lovely and fit nicely. Well done on sticking with this pattern. Patterns with too much ease are a pain. 3/13/08 7:49 PM
lilyofthevalley said... I love both of your blouses; you have definitely 'made it work' with this pattern. I almost fainted when I read that you placed over 50 pintucks! Wow! You're not only patient; you're accurate. Really lovely work here. -Lily 3/14/08 1:34 AM
Kbenco said... thank you for all the lovely comments. I think the thought of all the pintucks was why the blouse stayed on the weeping chair for so long - I definitely did not plan quite so many! 3/14/08 4:20 AM
AdaH said... So glad I read this before making the blouse. Will definitely pattern fit this before I sew, might even make a muslin. 3/11/10 9:58 PM
