Basic White with Flare
The body is right by the Barcelona Blouse pattern - made in White Batiste. The side panels and center back are 2 layers - the front (for buttons) is 3 layers of batiste. The sleeves are right by the Romantica pattern, but I added a 1/2" casing at the joining seam and inserted elastic for a little more fluff. The collar is the Barcelona collar but I reshaped from the shoulder to the center front for a curve so I could insert a ruffle at the outer edge.

A Shirt from your Stash!
Body is the Basic Long Sleeve Shirt - with no darts. The neckline was opened 1/4 inch - this was done after the facing was stitched in place - just stitch inside an additional 1/4", using the original stitching as a guide. Sleeves are Basic Short Sleeve Shirt. All fabric was pieced before cutting garment - it is just rectangles with a long fabric insert (red) for accent. Covered buttons match the red accent strip.
