Notes This was made from less than 1m, about 75cm, of 135cm fabric (with a one way design) left over from another project. Not enough fabric to make the facings, so I lined the top completely. Face fabric was Liberty Tana Lawn (design - Landis, this has buildings within the design), lined with plain silk/cotton blend fabric.
I do not like asymmetry, so cut the 2 front peplum sections identically and altered the back peplum to fit. I may add a fastening to the peplum front, as this flaps open in wearing (particularly when I walk).

I am really pleased with the way that the print design gives a horizontal stripe effect on the collar. I am not pleased about forgetting to interface the front fastening section, which means the buttons/buttonholes are not very stable.

    I now see this blouse with you and did not dare to take it because I thought that the bottom of the blouse would be very pleated. With you I see that it falls very nicely ..... have you kept the original pattern or made changes?

    I like the way you have described likes and dislikes. I am thinking of making this blouse and those comments really help. I too like the way shawl collars interact with the pattern on the fabric.
