I made this blouse ages ago from a pattern I designed myself. I converted the bust darts into gathers coming out of a shoulder yoke. I made gathered sleeve heads and used black piping along the neckline and sleeve edges. I also made my own self-cover buttons to match. Unfortunately I made the blouse rather close-fitting so that it’s become a little tight on me since I made it last summer. Well, maybe it will fit perfectly again this summer. Fingers crossed.

How lovely! I don’t think it’s tight on you at all. I looks really well made also, I love the piping.
