Notes	I made this blouse from a small table cloth, which meant I was very limited in placement of the pattern pieces. I did have to leave the cuffs off, because I just didn't have enough fabric. Once I finished the blouse, I noticed there was a red wine stain on the collar (that's what you get from using an old tablecloth I guess...), so I added the lace border around the collar, which hides that stain. Plus it matched the lace trim that was already on the tablecloth and that I kept to have the trim around the sleeves. Happy with the result. Easy to make. Fit is very very good.

Genius pattern placement, what a beautiful blouse - talk about making lemonade from lemons - or, in this case, grapes!

What a wonderful blouse! I really like the fabric you used, one would never guess it was a table cloth... and I personally think it was good that there was this red wine stain - the lace just adds a lovely romantic detail to the blouse.

The end result is very beautiful. Lovely fabric.
