Burda 7136 is on my sewing table right now. It has been on my sewing table for days. It shouldn't be taking me so long to make a blouse.
What can I say, I'm taking my sweet time. I'm about half way done. Yesterday, I finished sewing and basting the collar. Later today, I'll finish the collar and facing and then move ahead on the next steps.
The last time I made a shirt in a fabric that has a similar appearance on both sides I made this great error. And this blouse also has plackets. Oh, the flashbacks!
Mistakes happen, I just have to learn from them. I think the lesson that I took away from the McCall's 2447 shirt would be to take my time and double check before stitching. Just take my sweet time and everything will be fine.
Happy Sewing!
