Cream blouse

On my cutting table at the moment is this cute little blouse, I am making view B without the ruffle.

I have cut it out and done quite a bit of stitching on this, here is what I have done so far.

 I love these amazing fit patterns as they allow you to alter the pattern to fit your figure, I have quite a full bust but narrow shoulders so I am able to get a really good fit using this pattern. I cut a size 12 and followed for the DD cup size. 

 I did wonder how the pocket would look trying to get a good fit over all the bust fabric but it looks quite nice.  The fabric choice is not my favourite, it is a little too thin for my liking I usually like a crisper cotton that is a little bit thicker but it looks ok. I think I used a quilting weight cotton when I made the pink blouse and that did turn out just perfect.    

 This is the finishing on the inside, I did a zigzag stitch and cut close to the stitching for a neat finish, mmmm, I feel it is now time I bought myself an overlocker.

 I will be putting the sleeves in this over the next few days and then doing the buttonholes, hopefully it should be finished soon and then I will be cutting out a dress pattern, I bought the fabric quite a while ago for a summer dress for this year.

Until next time................. happy stitching!
