Burda Style For people who sew
Description
My first ever attempt at making a blouse… I loved the JJ design so thought i’d have a go at this one.
Overall i was pretty pleased with the outcome see’ing as it was also my first attempt at doing a collar & buttons/button holes… although i did have one little accident :-(… i had finished the blouse & was just slicing the last button hole on the left sleeve open when i slipped & went righ through the end cutting into the material…Oooops, managed to fix it… eventually… but have had to sew the button over it so the arm buttons don’t open… but i’m sure i can live with it :-)
Material Notes
Green Cotton LIttle Flower Buttons

Wow – You made one slick blouse – I would never guess this was your first one! The color and the flower buttons make it fresh and unexpected. You’ve inspired me to make one also. Great job!
