DIY Becca Blouse
This is a very pretty and easy style top for a casual summer day. There are only 2 patterns pieces for this project, therefore the assembly steps are quite simple. However, your sewing challenge will be the finishing. The hemming will require patience and focus. Don’t rush and using lots of pins will help.
