Taking It In, Part V: Cinch It

This has always been one of my favorite tops. The color is positively lovely. The sleeves are plenty long for my ridiculous monkey arms. Unfortunately, it doesn't fit any more.

So I took in a bit along each side and sleeve, maintaining the original cuff size. But it was still a bit too large in the waist to be flattering. I created an elastic casing across the back of the shirt from dart to dart. And now my favorite button-up shirt can retain its title.

I've got one more trick up my sleeve (pun very much intended) for taking in a button-up blouse. So keep an eye out for my series finale!
