Description

In hindsight making the blouse is really not that difficult. However, the instructions were a bit useless. I had to look through all the pictures that members have posted to figure out the next step. It is recommended to use interfacing but I didn’t use it as the fabric is a bit flimsy and see through. Instead I put one extra layer of fabric, so maybe that’s why the sleeves turned out a bit like wings.

Material Notes

I used cotton silk blend, which looks great but it kept getting caught in the machine.

      Thanks. I like them too like this. They remind me of sleeves with shoulder pads. They are so in now.
