Dove Curve blouse pattern

Nice pattern with some good variations possible

I made this with just some Calico cotton as a test. The pattern feels true to size, and the directions are good. I will make my first "real" top with a lighter weight viscose, as the cotton was too stiff and looked like a medical "scrub" top. One of my favorite sewing teachers (YouTube - Lifting Pins and Needles) made this pattern twice and the second time she showed how to flare out the short sleeve. My only issue was some difficulty following the cutting lines as they converged in a few areas (like the the dart area) while tracing the pattern. I prefer to keep the original pattern intact when it shows multiple sizes, so I trace the pattern on vellom.
