Kayabunga said... Your blouse looks lovely on you, nice job! :) Just an idea ... try turning the sleeve up an inch or so to form a little cuff. I hate showing my arms but find short sleeved blouses really look sharp when I do that. The collar style, I believe is called a wing collar. It's very graceful the way it frames your face. I found the Palmer/Pletch CD "Full Busted? Sew Clothes That Fit" very helpful in explaining the ins and outs of FBA. It's so much easier when you can actually see someone do the adjustment. Keep up the good work. 3/26/10 6:50 AM
Kemish said... Your blouse looks great on you. The fabric and the style (and the buttons) are a perfect match. Good idea about using the sleeves from another pattern to get what you like. I have set aside my 'dart' blouse patterns and have returned to a princess seam pattern for my next set of blouses because I am looking to get a better fit. Now I need to go check out this pattern, too. I especially like the collar detail. 3/26/10 11:00 AM

Annette1 said... Very pretty! I'm making this top RAT NOW, so I especially appreciate your review. That collar was the feature that put me over the edge to buying YET ANOTHER pattern, too. I think it's very flattering. I love your fabric, too! 5/9/10 1:09 AM
