COCO PLEASE MEET ROBERTO




I recently finished the blouse for my Chanel style jacket. I used McCalls 4591, a favorite I have made several times. It is cut on the bias so it is very easy but has a great fit. The blouse fabric is a Roberto Cavalli silk and is also used for the jacket lining. I used french seams on the side seams and shoulder seams and hand overcast the sleeve. One of the things I love about this pattern besides the ease of sewing and the great fit is that the inside looks as nice as the outside.

Lovely! Will have to try out this pattern. Don't make too many blouses and I should.
