Notas	In request of my BFF. Made in a few hours. I just changed the end of the sleeves, as she wanted elastic in her sleeves. She wanted an ‘Indie’ blouse for a reggea festival. Well, she’s got one. Now she can dance on her reggae-reggae beat… The fabric is cotton, I found the fabric in a left-over-fabric crate at a fabric store (did cost me 3 euro, I used 1,60m, but it is a very large size, as she had gained 32 kilo in a couple of months). It is a great pattern, even to be used as a base.

Nini120: I did not make the sleeves as given in the pattern, My BFF wanted normal sleeves with an elastic in it's hem. Beside that, I never regard marks, I just pin and baste until it fits.

Well done! What a beautiful piece. I’m sure your BFF will love it. You are obviously a talented seamstress. I see you’ve also added a collar to the collar stand. I wondered if I might ask where the arm actually goes through the side. I’m having trouble understanding that part. I have added biased tape to the arm opening and I am ready to sew the side seams. Does your arm actually go through the opening below the squiggly line marked on the slope of the sleeve and the side seam? It seems pretty small if that is the case. Any explanation on how the side seam And sleeve/wrist opening goes together would be most greatly appreciated!
