Description

This was a very quick project which I started yesterday :).

I used leftover fabric from my mother-in-law-to-be and some rest IKEA fabric.

I used the original sleeves and cut them half-rounded instead square.

I´m very happy with the result!

Materials

purple polka dot and white cotton

Looks great - I really like your sleeves! May I ask, how did you get the front to sit together so well? I used press studs on the front, and I don't like how it is only connected at so few points- but i don't want to put press studs everywhere as I've recently discovered that I don't like press studs!

sewing summer clothes.

This came out very cute! Nice moved on the sleeves. Desira is my love and hate relationship, I love the wrap part dearly but I dislike the original sleeves. It reminds me of crews in Star trek's ship.

Yeah, I like the sleeves, too! And I think I will nick your idea when I make a Desira one day ;)

Making Dianas for everyone I know.

I did a Desira but I like yours much better. I'm going to try again in cotton with the contrasting fabric.

miss burdastyle :(!! to busy ...

Thank you all for your nice comments!

Mira: the trick how I fixed it, is that I sewed the belt 3 times on the blouse (on each sideseam and at the front of the right side from the blouse).
