Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I got 2 scarves and saw the picture of this mexican blouse (pic.#5) in a magazine and wondered how to make a top similar to that. I like Danielle pattern a lot and saw modifications of it on this site so I tried out. I left out sleeves as I didn’t have enough of the material and put the zipper into the side part. I like how it turned out.
Material Notes
2 printed cotton scarves (70cm x 70cm), invisible zipper

I really like the alterations you made to the pattern, it looks beautifully as a top. And it’s a clever use of scarves. :-)
