Заметки	I chose a cotton printed voile, black background means it is not see-through. I've made this pattern before and was very pleased with the fit and the way the sleeves set in the bodice. I changed a few things, such as a curved hem. It is longer because the hem is narrower so this blouse is more of a tunic when untucked. I straightened the side seams so that it skims rather than hugs my waistline. I also hacked the sleeve so that it has a gathered hem. I spread cut lines about 2.5cm apart and taped each cut about 1cm apart on spare paper. I also increase the length by 3cm and drafted a hem facing by tracing along the hem of the sleeve and measuring up just over 3.5cm. I them echoed the technique of the ruffle on the neckline by creating a casing by sewing 3cm from the folded over hem facing and another stitch-line .8cm away and threaded some tape through to create the gathers.

Great job, you must be very pleased with this version!
Your fabric is beautiful, the drape is excellent and it forms the ruffles very nicely.
One of the best things about sewing your own clothing is that each garment is unique and personalised. Making your own style changes has made this even more unique. I really like this style too, I have made it several times and will definitely be making it again!

Very nice! Lovely print and style. I love that Lekala patterns are easy to hack, much easier than the Big 4.
