Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This blouse drove me crazy from start to end.
I made the collar myself (this part was not bad at all) and drafted the pattern for the blouse myself. what is there to draft in a plain sleeveless blouse, you ask? This blouse was supposed to have tulip sleeves. Here begins the story of making this blouse which nearly brought me to tears.
you can read more about this in my blog post

I tried a similar project, but I had a pattern for both the trim and tank, it gave me the blues and I gave up. Yours looks like s success! I like it.

Your blouse is lovely and the collar looks wonderful. Without reading your blog, I am guessing the type of fabric is what gave you the headache. But it still looks great and I think you will love wearing this top.

ha yes part of the problem was the fabric. I also almost threw the blouse out the window when I couldn’t get the sleeves to work
