AND, my husband is on his way home so I have to start dinner,
BUT, I want to ask your opinion about this top. I LOVE this fabric, and I LOVE the style, and I LOVE the SFD Fit, BUT
I can't decide if I should put
Pink Buttons
or
White Buttons
or
Black Buttons
What do you think would look best? I even thought about covered buttons.
It will have sleeves tomorrow, but for now it looks like this. Notice the 3 buttons. Pink covered button on top -- then black -- then white.
This really is a new style. Notice those princess lines right across my bust and up both sides of the back.
PLEASE leave me a comment. I love it when you comment. Sorry, but I really have to dash down the stairs and start some supper for my sweet husband.
Hugs, Joy
The blouse looks great. I assume you used the SFD bodice blueprint. You did a great job. Saying that - black buttons!

White or clear
ReplyDeleteLove the blouse! I would do white buttons, but I'm kind of dull that way :-)

The pink buttons are smashing! Love the shape of the blouse.

Pink (covered) is perfect!
ReplyDeleteI like the pink buttons best. Lovely top.
ReplyDeleteNow that I actually paid attention and saw the buttons, I'm changing to the covered button.

Lol, Cheryl. I put in a different picture.
DeletePink, it is.
Thanks!

DeleteKids just left, so I finally have time to answer your question. I say the covered buttons. Second choice would be the white, but not the black.

ReplyDeleteI have to change my mind too. I didn't see the buttons at first. The covered one looks great.

I've been following your blog for a few months now [since I found SFD] and really enjoy reading it. I think the pink covered buttons are perfect. Thank you for your lovely blog thoughts and good luck with your leg.

Thank you everyone. Pink, it is. I did not have any pink buttons, so I tried covering one. I must order more coverable buttons. They really do look nice. Phylly is making some for her latest jacket.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Joy
I like the pink covered buttons first, white second and the black as my least favorite because of the poke a dot background on the fabric. The blouse looks wonderful so far, can't wait to see it with sleeves.
ReplyDeleteI like the covered buttons also.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute blouse - definitely covered buttons! Kindly, Glenda
ReplyDeleteLove the blouse. You did a great job on the princess style.
ReplyDeleteI love, love the pink buttons.
Pink for sure!
ReplyDeleteThe pink buttons are soooo cute! I love the blouse and your blog ;)
ReplyDeleteLove this fabric! Only last week I saw a similar up-market shirt, and what really grabbed my attention was how they used a different button each time - all tied together with a silver theme. They had 5 same sized, same silvery colour, but different buttons down the front. I though it was a great quirky idea to use when we just can't make up our minds as to which one style of button to pop on ... off to have a peek around your blog ... J
ReplyDeleteHi Judith!
DeleteThanks so much for the comment. I have seen that before too. Problem for me is, there are no stores closer than an hour drive from me, so I have to use what I have on hand.
Hugs, Joy
I am so late to the party, but I love how the black buttons reference the black polka dots in the fabric.
ReplyDeleteLove the blouse. I would use covered buttons taking my fabric from a matching area. Definitely not white (looks "home-made).
