Pattern Description:
bias-cut blouse with flutter sleeves, french darts and tie-backs.

Pattern Sizing:
0-16. i started with a 2 but ended up sizing down to a 0.

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
i love how the simple bias-cut bodice has amazing drape and shape and is easy to work with. it�s a great canvas for any kind of fabric or finish.

Fabric Used:
roberto cavailli �just cavalli� crepe-de-chine from mood fabrics

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
i swapped out the flutter sleeve for a simpler sleeve from simplicity 2593, eliminated the tie-back, and nipped up the back for a built-in swayback adjustment.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
yes, i already have three cut out for myself in addition to this one i made for my sister.

Conclusion:
easy pattern, easy to use, great results.
