I used some very cheap fabric for this, trying to cut corners while I was learning how to sew, but overall I’m pleased with it. I haven’t put buttons on the sides yet. Will do. Looks great with the Franzi vest. I also messed up on the ruffles so there is only a pair, but they are cute! My mistake was folding them in half I think. I may make this one over and do it right next time. This time I ran out of cloth!

Looks great. I hope my JJ blouse looks half this good when I get up to it.
