Yesterday, I mentioned that I'd made myself a new blouse, and I thought I'd show it to you today.

I made a size 10, in design B, from New Look pattern 6187.
Modifications: Before sewing up the hem, I tried it on and found it to be a little snug(!) around the derrière. So I unpicked 4" from the bottom of each side seam and made slits up each side, making it a much better fit.
I'm already contemplating making another one, and have just ordered some cotton lawn in red, which I think will go great.
Details:
Pattern - New Look (#6187)
Fabric - Plumberry from the Charleston Farmhouse collection, designed by Felicity Miller for Freespirit.

Very nice. You've done a lovely job.
ReplyDeleteIt looks lovely Jill!! You know they are still taking applications for next year's Sewing Bee competition!! You could definitely be a contender! Great modification on the hem, and I expect that it adds a nice detail to the bottom as well! What a clever thing you are. xx
ReplyDeleteGorgeous Jill, the fabric is beautiful ! :)
