Thanks Trena on your comment about the fabric on my blouse. I love the fabric, too, so much I have been crawling the web for rayon jersey. There is not much out there, Lucy's Fabric is one source, so is Fabric.com, but all solids for now. Gorgeous Fabrics has some, too. I am cash-short right now with regards to fabric shopping, so it will be a bit before I can splurge on some from Ann's or other source. First up is buying the fabric for my daughter's first communion, which will be expensive for my experience and have something picked out already from Ann's. One thing I noticed is that since I used wider elstic and this fabric is weightier than the slinky was, I felt that band when I wore it. Next version, I may add a bit of length to the upper bodice under the bust or go back to thin elastic. I am planning on redoing it one more time in a solid, maybe not hemming the sleeved, just rolled serged or lettuce hemming on the sleeves and the bottom to make it fluttery...
