Love Notions Ballad Blouse

 I finally printed out and sewed up the Love Notions Ballad Blouse with the shirring.  Love Notions did not disappoint in this blouse pattern at all!

The shirring took a little practice but in the end it worked out better than I expected.  A little YouTube video tutorial and I realized that my elastic thread in the bobbin was not threaded thru my machine tight enough.  A little stretching and pulling and it came out perfect!

My wearable muslin fabric choice wasn't my favorite.  It reminds me of the 80's!  But it's wearable and finished so I might as well get use out of it.

I hope that sewing this blouse up will get my sewing mojo going again.  I would love to sew up Fall style clothing but it's still hot nd humid here in Florida.  No use in sewing something that you can't wear for a few more months.

Until next time....................
