Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This is the second version I’ve made of McCalls 5929. This time, I eliminated the ruffles, used the collar, and doubled the number of buttons. I love the results! It’s quickly become my go-to shirt – it works for everything!
You can read more about the process on my blog, Experiments and Accidents.
Material Notes
I used crepe, but just about anything would work for this pattern!

Hmm. This blouse fits you well…and it’s no wonder…the pattern is sized for A, B, C cups. I’m nearly ecstatic as an A cup girl. Also for even more give, this would be fabulous in a stretch cotton.
