After seeing what you made with this fabric I'm in love with it. Normally it would be the last thing on earth I would have thought I would like. Beautiful make.

just bought a pattern identical to this one. I appreciate the 'tutorial'. I was thinking of putting on either butterfly sleeves or 3/4 length bell sleeves.

I have this pattern and the fabric. I just have to start it. The pleats on the sleeves is scaring me.

Nice fabric and easy to follow tutorial - I couldn't help but notice you ended up with the same problem I always get too - slight gaping on the neck, it could've done with 2mm nipped in at the shoulder seam to help it lie flat?
