    How much fabric does this use? I am so excited to make it! I think I might try to add a tie collar.

    I forgot to add that I am very happy to see the pattern starts with a size 34, that’s just great.

    Love this blouse. I have some paisley fabric already that I was going to use for another pattern, but I think I will try this one instead. Hope the ruffles aren’t too hard. I am always excited to see what’s new on this site. Thank you so much for providing such wonderful patterns for FREE.

    It looks even better than I remembered. Way to go, JJ! By the way, some of the recent patterns have a really broad size range, I’m loving that too. I think it makes Burdastyle patterns even more attractive to a lot of people.
