笔记	Two listings ago I presented this blouse (I did name it my ‘Murphy’s law blouse’, as all which could go wrong, went wrong. It was not Lekala’s fault, it was entirely mine). As a seamstress with honor I took another fabric out of my large stock, and started again. This time all went well. This fabric was also thin, but not as extremely thin as the previous one, so I could skip the lining (hooray!). To have a somewhat different outlook, I decided to give the blouse sleeves. For these I did use the pattern of the ‘Lekala 2360 Blouse With Ties On Sleeves’ but without the ties, as I dislike ‘dangling’ fabric against my body. The sleeves itself are nice, and I do not know why (maybe I have a different point of view) but it seems to make the blouse having a more sturdy outlook and ‘heavy’ around the buste part. But hey, done is done, I’m not going to unpick the lot. To baste the folds is a finicky work, but once done - finishing the blouse is easy. I am very fond of this pattern, perhaps making the blouse again in a white fabric, giving it a classic outlook. PS: I have removed the sleeves. It made the bust-area too heavy to my liking. Without the sleeves it is far more to my liking. So it is turned back as the pattern itself was. Totally happy now.
