Bohemian Vintage Blouse
Sunday, March 30, 2008
Just love these buttons. DH got them from Shirley at F & S Fabrics.
This was a fun experiment, and I’m happy with this wearable muslin. The fit is just right, I can actually move my arms and the rest of my body quite comfortably :-) I guess this means that with proper fitting I might get used to wearing fitted clothes. Maybe.
It was a sloppy dye job. Flecks, uneven color. Whatever. But I like it, just have to figure out something to go with it.
Here’s the finished collar pattern. The scalloped front is barely visible so next time I’ll make it more pronounced.
Bad photo of pattern pieces sans front button band.
