Looks sharp. Did your cotton have stretch? I seem to recall putting this one aside for lack of a stretch fabric, but having seen yours, I'm tempted again. Thanks

Very nice work on your blouse. You will get a lot of use from this one. Just a cut above....

inkstain - I did not use stretch fabrics - I think that's sort of cheating ;-)!!! This blouse does have a close fit, so if you're going it, you might want to do the next size up. But I love it. Personally, I perfer a close fit, but that's my personal preference. The next time I'm going to mess with that side front seam...the seam between upper front and lower front, to see if I can't get more of a dart in there. I think this would be excellent for some of my bustier clients.
