Pattern Description: Simple, versatile blouse perfect for creative embellishment, with deep tucks at the front and back waist for a loose but curvy shape great for tucking in. Version 1 closes with back snaps, making it easiest to sew. Version 2 has neckline tucks and buttons up the back. Version 3 has a keyhole neckline with tie closure and buttons up the back.

Pattern Sizing: 0-20

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? Sort of

Were the instructions easy to follow? Mostly

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I think the pattern is really cute, and I love the flared waist

Fabric Used: I think it's a poly crepe or something like that. Something drapey

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? I definitely want to try it again, maybe in a cotton voile

Conclusion: I had a hard time telling how it was supposed to fit - the muslin felt too big (and the final shirt seems too big in the back), so I sized down, but now it seems to have lost that drape that I see in a lot of the other reviews. And it keeps sliding to the back! But I really like it all the same.
