Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I’ve been craving to try JJ Blouse in a black/white Gingham check.
Sewing the ruffles was tricky, but I like ruffles so much !
Not sure though if the outcome is exactly what I wanted or intented, but now I’ve got a perfect piece for next sommer picnic parties.
Material Notes
Soft cotton fabric that has a linen feel.

Many thanks to everyone for encouraging me! And especially to JJ for this fantastic pattern peaudane:Yes, I serged the edges of the ruffles with a 2 threads rolled hem stitch.

Love it! I wouldn’t have guessed that the JJ would look so fantastic in gingham. Great job matching the plaid too.

I love it. I would never imagine making this shirt in that material, but it looks fabulous, makes me want to try my hand at it… again! I’m addicted to the JJ Blouse!
