Waitress Blouse Revisited

This morning I was going through some of the "forgotten" clothes in my closet when I came across this gem. While I adore the 1960's waitress vibe the sash has always drove me nuts. It never stayed in place no matter how much I ironed; hence it's been rather lonely for a year or two.


Then it occured to me that the mustard-colored thread currently loaded in my Brother would match... [wheels turning]
Ah ha!! I can topstitch the sash in place & then it won't shift or roll up- genius!!! 

Ironed, pinned down & ready to roll
In under any hour I've got the finished product & this blog post up. Viola:



Happy Saturday & Spring Forward! 

ciao,
