If one is good, two is better, right?
Another rendition of Hot Patterns 1170, the Blouse Back T. Different colors and a couple more changes to the basic pattern.
After wearing the first one a couple of times, I decided I needed to add some width to the back. I wanted fuller gathers in the woven than what the pattern had. Basically having it look more like the picture.
The other change was to run some elastic thread through the neckline. This snugged up the band, which now prevents it from drooping open (outward?) by the end of the day.
These should be the final modifications. I like the fit, and have gotten quite a number of compliments. When strangers notice, that’s not too bad.
