McCalls 6354...in Navy Batik


A new blouse for Jill in Blue Batik :)






Stitching up this pattern is so fast and easy!
I did make a pattern modification.
As I hope you can see, I split the cut-on 
cap sleeve to give it some movement.
I also added a self-fabric bow at the CF waist to give the appearance of a drawstring.

  





And since she really liked the first one I made from this bright flowery cotton lawn I decided to make another.  I hope she likes it in Blue Batik just as  much!

  3. Did you use 2 different coordinating fabrics, or are they both border prints? Very nice, I really like them both!

    wow, that split in the sleeve makes a real difference. It does not appear stiff. Great idea.
