Fabric shopping with her is a lot of fun, too.

I have what I have and no more, and most like won't be able to get anymore if something goes wrong! I was so glad I had enough fabric to make two blouses.. and enough time, too!

When I realised the sleeves I cut out were too wide I thought I would try sewing a few pintucks to see if they would do the job before cutting out narrower sleeve pieces.
