what type of material did you use?

[scarboroughwear]

It was a thin cotton material that I picked up at Walmart. I tend to look for fabric that is soft and not too stiff when I make a blouse.

This blous would look beautiful with some emboidery on it. I'm going to try it. Thanks for the idea.

[scarboroughwear]

That would look nice. I wish I was better at embroidery. Good luck on the blouse.

[WumboMePanda]

Haha.

Woo hoo... I just found this video in time!

I'm planning on making a shirt for myself (Male) and I think this gives me the basics on how to get started... though I still need to find out how to make a Mens Renaissance style shirt instead of a womens blouse, but I plan to use your "trace around the shirt" Idea because it just seems smart xD

We have a hula halau (school) that needs a simple way to do "missionary style" blouses. We have to do a lot of them so your video is so very much appreciated. Mahalo (Thank you in Hawaiian)

How do you cut the pattern to make the sleeves that shape where when you hold your arms up, it looks sort of like a triangular. I'm not sure how to describe what I'm talking about, but I'm sure you must know. what shape do you cut the sleeves to get that look? HELP!

If I wanted to make a cropped version of this blouse, would I just do the same thing I would have to do for the sleeves to the bottom?
