One day I just jumped right into the deep end! I actually really love that scary feeling. Butterflies in your stomach. Near guarantee of failure, but you just go and do it anyways. Couple of weeks ago, I decided I was going to make myself a button down shirt! That’s a big step from generic PJ pants and plain ol’ t-shirts! The risk was totally worth it.
I scoured the web for decent patterns. As I’ve learned with my pant failures up to this point, a good pattern makes all the difference in the world. The pattern that kept on coming up a real winner was McCall’s M6649 Blouse. Wouldn’t you know it though, the pattern is “out-of-print”, but you can get the pattern through Craftsy if you purchase the “Learn to Adjust Blouse Patterns in One Pattern, Many Looks” class. I purchased the Craftsy class. I found the class rather pointless, but more on that in a second.
