Red & White Polka Dot Blouse- New Look 6808



Pattern- New Look 6808
Fabric--Tiny Red & White Polka Dot stretch cotton blend
Notions- none

 I have had this pattern for quiet awhile. I have seen it made several times at Sew Weekly. I really
liked the  look of it.. So, I finally got around to making it.. It is a really comfortable and easy to wear
blouse.  I love the collar and the little bow on it. Super cute..
   I have a  skirt cut out,  that I am intending on making to go with it. Later Post.
   My photographer [Kenny] is out of commission right now... so no photos of me wearing it.. That
will have to come later, ha.

    1. Diane,
      Love this pattern.,It was super simple and the fit was really good.It called for a side zipper, but I made it a little looser and didnt need the zipper.
      Happy sewing.

  5. Dear Judy,

    I love this blouse! Especially the RED bow! It is absolutely adorable. I can see this looking very nice with a black straight skirt and pumps.

    Give Kenny a big hug from all of us here in Maine...we are praying for a speedy and full recovery!

    With love,
    Laura
