I needed to pursue my other passion so I made up my mind not to shop for ready-to-wear for a while. I was inspired by another blogger who did one year of not shopping clothes. You can link to her blog here.
For this blouse, I used NewLook 6483 in View D but I added sleeves to it. The fabric is Swiss Dot. Its light texture makes it perfect for the summer heat. I did a test garment without the front and back facings before sewing my fashion fabric. The fit was spot-on in my opinion so no adjustments were made but not until I was ready to sew the real thing.
