Heyhey,

the sunny blouse is finally finished. If you like to re-read the full tutorial, you can find the other steps here: pattern and cutting, sewing1, sewing2, sewing3.

The last steps are the following:

 now I pinned my sleeves into the bodice, bodice wrong side out, sleeve right side out placed in the armhole.

 sewed and serged starts looking like a blouse

because the facing always showed at the neckline I sewed the facing to the seam allowance

that still did not do the trick, so I sewed  the shoulder seam of bodice and facing together to keep it on the inside

my inside looks like this now

and finally the facing stays where it belongs

now I serged my hem and marked my 2 cm hem allowance

and folded it up inside, but pinned on the right side

and sewed parallel to the fold

last I marked the placing for the buttons with pins. I put the through the loop a few mm away from the end of the loop

thats where my buttons need to be

and I sewed them on by hand. The original pattern require 6 buttons, but with the size of my buttons I preferred 4.

my finished blouse

fitting me well 😉

and I think using less ruffles at the waist and just 1 big ruffled part around the hip worked well. What do you think?
