The linen blouse toile is finished taken from Burda 7670, view B.
Not too bad, and on the fit model…
The front edge needs stabalising, the hip area needs tweaking, although the pattern does suggest that gap in the front. There are a few tweaks to make, but generally the length is good on me as are the shoulders and arm length, so it has the start of a very good pattern for me and I really like the construction of the collar, which I think goes well with my addition of cufflink cuffs.
Now to keep on the theme of my New Years Resolution of finishing items I have already started, just a couple of jumpers to finish knitting and a waistcoat and summer top to finish sewing and I should be there, oh and socks, lots of socks started. I am thinking I’ll finish in June. That’s if I don’t get side tracked with dressing gowns and pyjama bottoms – again!
Beautiful job on the linen blouse. Love your blog. Could you tell me where you got the dress form. I love to sew but I think it’s time to invest in a dressmaker form. Thank you.
