Sometime in early October I finished a blouse for Lauren’s friend, Eliza. This would be the second year I’ve sewn for E and the beginnings of what I hope will be a long running tradition. Last year’s blouse was one of my favorites, but I think this one is quite spiffy, too. Like the red dress, the pattern is from Kids Happy Homemade Vol. 2—a great book with lots of simple patterns (what else would you expect?). The sizes are on the larger end of what I usually see offered in most Japanese books and also seemed to be pretty generous so it’s a good choice for those of us who are well out of the toddler sewing phase. I would definitely make this pattern again. Lauren wants one just like this only a dress. Christmas plaid?!
