Mint is all the rage this spring. I was originally going to make the entire blouse out of mint, but then I thought it needed some contrast.
The color looks a little retro to me and so I dug around in the fabric stash to find this polka-dot (left-over from my laundry room curtains).
She loves it! She thinks it's adorable and loves that no one else at school will show up w/ the same shirt.
I like that only cost me about $3 for the fabric and a few hours of my time.
FYI- It's Simplicity 1693-view D.
That's so dang cute! You have some serious skills!
