that is exactly why I passed over this the first time, not enough fitting, but your idea of adding ties is great1 It works well.

I love the style but much more the result. "Ohh what a nice blouse", I said by myself when I saw this!

I LOVE your blouse! Beautiful print and great idea to add the waist tie. I liked this pattern in BWOF but hesitated making it because it looked too boxy. It looks great with the waist tie.

LOVE this blouse! How did you finish the edges of the ruffles?

Allie in Hong Kong said...
Kristinlala, I followed Burda's instructions to finish the edge with a narrow zig zag, you can see more details of this step on my blog if Burdas directions make so sense (not unusual!). I'll add a link in the review.
