Another favorite pattern! This blouse is from a Knip Mode issue from Hilco from a couple of summers ago. I checked for a similar American pattern and found this New Look that is almost the same cut.
I added the ruffle with just bias strips sewn into the placket. I had trouble finding the right buttons so I ended up using five completely different buttons in the same shade of red. I love it! I used a stretch cotton poplin from fabric.com. I really love this shirt!
this might be my favorite!! Really really nice job Kelly! It looks store bought! Color, style, ruffle; all perfect!
ReplyDeleteThat's become my go-to pattern for blouse alterations! I like the ruffle detail-- I might have to remember that for the next variation. :)
