    This had no usable markings at all–those that were there were not accurate. You can’t tell from the pattern illustration, but it is intended to be full in front and gathered on a waist-stay. Unfortuantely, I wanted a standard blouse, so I lengthened it by several inches (then had to shorten in front because the fullness made it hang too low–I never did get it even.) The cuffs are way to large for my wrists and i had to reduce them (the turnback cuff variant can be seen is on the photo of Past Patterns 4051). I couldn’t figure out where to put the collar, so I used a strip of selvage to finish the neck, completely finished to collar, and then sewed them together by hand after I had it all buttoned. Surprisingly, it came out just about how I wanted it. I’m glad I made it in droopy fabric (silk matelasse) because in cotton the fullness would have made it too poofy.
