Fabric is a cotton from Vogue fabric's. I wanted something with a small print and I think this fits the bill, I also had in my stash a lightweight wool in black so I made a skirt to with this blouse.
There is a lot of different small pieces to be cut like a drawstring band, bias binding strips 3 tie bands and 4 drawstring bands for the pockets time consuming stuff.
100% cotton black background, with tiny pink and green flowers.
The original style is made with two different matching fabrics I made it with just one fabric. The pattern is easy to follow, they have you trim away the SA on the neck edge, this is after applying the facing, I thought this was a bit
bizarre and I was
reluctant to do this but I did and it turned out
ok. Did I read this correctly or was I just lucky.
Technical Drawing
Over-blouse with little puffed sleeves, waist drawstring and little tie-string
fastenings lend this blouse a romantic touch, so says the description of this
BWOF blouse 133 in the June issue.
