Gingham Heaven

I sewed my petal sleeves onto my blouse yesterday, and they are perrrrfffeecccttt. I love them. I've defined them in my head as a "modified cap sleeve", in that they give the coverage of a full sleeve but look more like a cap sleeve. Perfect perfect perfect. I also sewed on the collar and I decided to do just a plain mandarin standing collar instead of ruffles. I thought the print and the sleeve details would be enough for this blouse (oh, and the gold buttons I'm going to use).

darn blogger won't turn my photo the right way!
