I'm sure it would probably help with all the little issues I have though. Am currently fighting with my tension. Again!

Will try to find a PDF of the manual that's a good idea. I really love this blouse and would urge you to have a go. Is it the cut and stick part that puts you off? i normally set aside an evening to make up the patterns in front of a film. Do you have a blog? it would be good to see your makesSew Sleepyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16219201548012375760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3547237241210362062.post-26422814060751468532013-08-24T10:16:01.083+01:002013-08-24T10:16:01.083+01:00What a lovely top.

It's very interesting to see the journey of a complete (and ambitious!) beginner. I've also only been sewing for a few months and it's funny to read about someone else going through similar trials and tribulations to me.<br />I've had the invisible zip fun, but not the button holes yet! <br />Also lost my sewing machine manual. This was not good. Especially when I unclipped my bobbin housing (if that's the correct term?) when having tension issues and then couldn't put my machine back together...<br />I suggest Googling it. I found an pdf copy, and it was free :-) Also explained a lot of other things I'd just been guessing. <br />I hadn't really been sold on the Mathilde blouse, I just don't think the shape would suit me, but this may have convinced me to have a go. Also, piecing together my Miette pattern took so long, I think maybe I just can't be bothered!
