I am finally getting back to the Rhapsody Blouse by Love Notions. This is a much loved pattern and I hope I can get it to work. My first attempt at the Rhapsody Blouse was an exercise in picking the wrong size. Folks, I know to check the pattern before cutting. No idea why I did not. So, I have now reprinted a different size of the pattern and have applied the length changes that I know that I need. Here is the finally result:
Not sure about the weirdness in the top photo but hopefully, you can get an idea of the changes that were made.
I do have more of that cute fabric from the first muslin so that is that fabric that I am using. Here are the results of the second muslin:
I used a straight XL with the full bust option this time. That did not match up with the sizing instructions but measuring the pattern told me to do this.
Overall evaluations: The top fits. I feel like it might be a little on the snug side but that is easy to fix by adding a little bit to the bodice width. It is possible that the small change could create more changes. Overall I'm happy.
Happy Stitching!
