I love this pattern.
This time I decided on view A. It has shorter sleeves with a cute little pleat detail. It also has a ruffle. Err. The pattern does but mine does not. Ruffles, apparently, are not my friend. It was fiddly and I don't like fiddly. I pass on fiddly details because I'm not very patient.

The pattern! :) |
The cute sleeve pleat
In all it's purple glory.
I am a bias binding lunatic now!
My set in sleeves are getting so much better.
The fabric is a 100% cotton chambray shirting from Fabrics.com. It's firm without being stiff and sewed like. a. dream. I did get two Clover bias tape makers this week (finished width 0.5" and 1") but I was being a lazy pants and didn't make my own. This purple wasn't an exact match which is why it's inside...but I'm still happy. I think I'm wearing my red shirt tomorrow though for MMM :)
Fabric: $6
Bias tape: $1.20
Thread: On hand
Pattern: Pfft. I've gotten my $2.97 worth I think.
