I love that shirt Barb, what fantastic fabric!

And all from stash even the buttons & pattern. I don't remember what I bought the fabric for originaly but I have at least 2 or 3 more yds!

I love the shirt too. What kind of fabric is it? It looks like it has a soft hand.

It is very soft Poly (I think). It is from my stash & I don't even remember where I bought it or whay it was supposed to be.
I think I will wear it to my nieces open house next weekend.

Really like that top Barb. The fabric is so summery.

Thanks everyone! I am so happy that I cut the pattern without adding anything & it fits! I also only cut a size 20. I had been using a 22 or 24 & having to add at the waist & hips & take in the bust. This one all I added was about 1" in length because I don't like it when I raise my arms & bare skin shows. I hope that I can cut a more casual top out today. I am thinking sleeveless or cap sleeve in T shirt knit or woven cotton/poly.

Nice blouse, Barb. I love tried and true patterns.

So do I but this is the first time (but not last) I used this pattern. It was too small for me before. I bought it for one of my kids & then never got it made The Story of my life!
