Pattern Description: Misses/Women's Shirts:Loose-fitting, front and back darts, front band.


Pattern Sizing:Misses 8-16 (cup sizes A/B, C, D) and 18W-24W (cup sizes C/D, DD, DDD)

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? It looks exactly like the photo.

Were the instructions easy to follow?
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? This isn't my first time with this pattern. I have reviewed it once before, but thought it was worth a second review just to get it on other sewers' radar screens if in need of a great blouse pattern. I like everything about this pattern...........the fit, the style, the instructions.....everything!

Fabric Used: Pima cotton

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: I didn't make any changes to this pattern (this is the second round for me with this one). I did notice that next time I need to lower the bust dart about 3/4 inch. Other than that, this one is straight from the envelope (something I rarely ever do).

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? Absolutely!

Conclusion: This is a terrific pattern that I will continue to make again and again. This is the last review I will do for this one on pattern review, but I will show future renditions on my blog.
Buy this pattern for $13.46  List Price: $17.95   Add to Bag Add to Bag
