Don't faint-I'm back in rainy Florida!

Made this Style Arc shirt right before we left, as the pattern came in the mail and I couldn't wait to try it out on some double gauze fabric I ordered from Harts fabrics in Santa Cruz, Ca

As you can see, the winter sun was way down in the sky as I photographed the finished shirt


The pattern has an optional button and loop on the asymmetrical long side to give it a little drape.  Double gauze barely drapes, I found.


But, the fabric is so soft after laundering and I like the pattern enough to make it again.

The back has buttons down a placket, too.  I extended the front into a button all the way down placket, since I had enough buttons in my stash to make this work.

I'm finally getting into this tunic look on my little, short frame.  Sure is comfortable to wear.
