A very pretty blouse that I made a silly mistake with. I over gathered the back section which makes it pull a bit. It looks very pretty and she says she likes it but a mother knows when they are just being sweet!

If I were to make again I would ...

# Push the gathers more to the sleeve and front.
# Lower the neck line a wee bit
# Make the arm cuff a bit bigger.

    Merci, Estelle. Je pense qu’elle a l’air si jolie dedans. J’aurais juste aimé ne pas avoir fait de telles erreurs stupides.

    Thank you, Estelle. I think she looks so pretty in it. Just wish I had not made such silly mistakes.

    Très jolie blouse avec des broderies qui lui donnent un petit côté rétro que j'aime vraiment beaucoup ????.
    Belle réalisation,
    Estelle.

    Merci beaucoup Désiree, j’aurais dû regarder la photo correctement. Les broderies correspondent parfaitement à un skort que je lui ai fait.

    thank you so much Désiree, I should have looked at the picture properly. The embroideries perfectly match a skort I made her.

    Tres jolie blouse pour une tres jolie jeune fille la touche avec ces broderies sont superbes et je vois que la blouse a une difference de style selon si l'encolure est attachée ou pas
    mais bravo pour cette réalisation

    Thank you Jane, you are very kind.
    I was so cross at myself, if I look at the diagram it is obvious there isn't any gathering across the back.

    Such a cute top for a cute girl. Your workmanship always looks excellent. Don't blame yourself for things that don't turn out quite right. Sometimes these patterns are a little off or don't give good instructions.
