| This is my Hautey Bitch look. |
I really must sing the praises of this blouse. Vogue 8747 is from the "Basic Pattern Custom Fit" line, and I think I'm in love with these. Its built on their standard block, with most of the bust adjustment done for you. The two major changes on my part were large upper arms for the sleeves and rounded upper back adjustment. This is my second make. I also did a plain black one, but did not photograph it.
These trousers were given to me by a friend that had lost a great deal of weight after surgery. I love them to bits but they are getting kinda threadbare. I will probably use them to help draft a new pair.
I also really like how this goes with my floral bolero.
Hmmm. Hair stuck under the jacket. My mojo seems to have taken a hiatus. I did make a raglan t-shirt for Simon out of narwhal fabric, which he quite loves. I still have to finish it. I want to make a skirt or two for work then get cracking on my raincoats.
Ok, well. That's all folks! Until next time.
Ok, now that is a great shirt- I have to try that pattern. Perhaps in narwal....
ReplyDeleteYes, narwhal fabric!
DeleteI have to say it looks lovely. Nice work.
ReplyDeleteTHank you :)
DeleteOooh, I really love it w/ the bolero! Great color!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteVery nice. I bought that pattern thinking it looked a lot like the blouses at Ann Taylor, and your version proves my theory. I really should get around to making one of these some day.
ReplyDeleteI've made two and plan to make a third, its a great basics pattern!
DeleteYou look magnificent in purple, and it works perfectly with the bolero!
ReplyDeleteThank you! Purple is high on my list of colors for me. :)
