Burda Style For people who sew
Description
After sewing most of this blouse and the collar, I was stuck because my machine wouldn’t sew buttonholes, so this was in my unfinished project drawer for quite a while…
A few days ago I decided that I want to wear it already so I gave handmade buttonholes a try! Then I decided to make my blouse look more professional, so I finished the hems with self fabric bias tape.
After all the work I put into it, I am very happy with my new blouse! :)

Great top! The handsewn buttonholes are so awesome, especially in the contrasting thread.

It’s so cute, love the polkadot fabric you used for it, pretty chic blouse. Nice job with the buttonholes.
