Description

I made this Lavender colored blouse last year but only now got to take a picture of it (my sweet and patient BF is responsible for that).
Made mistakes with the front and neck edges, but I think I managed to correct them.
Overall it’s very comfortable and fun to wear…

Material Notes

The fabric is some sort of crepe

    I bought some pink fabric and lovely buttoms to make this blouse in. (I wanna say its from Burda 09/2009) I too was worried about the frilly yoke edges on the back. Thank you for taking detailed photos. Your blouse looks lovely. I don’t see any mistakes with edges. Well done!

      Thank you! It would look lovely in pink.
      I’m thinking of making another one with a jersey fabric and I found a great buttons store and now I only want to make stuff with buttons :-)

    That’s great! That’s a Burda Magazine pattern, isn’t it? I’ve been thinking about making it but I wasn’t sure because I couldn’t see how that shoulder/yoke seam would look (magazine photo not close-up enough) so your photos are very helpful. Suits you too!

      Thank you :-) yes, it’s from burda but I couldn’t remember which one.
      Unfortunately it happens quite a lot that the photo in the magazine is not very clear… so I always try to put some angles of the finished garment.
