New Look 6187

I have been looking for a nice summer shirt to keep the sun off - something with long sleeves and decent neck coverage.  I saw a few nice examples of New Look 6187 on Pattern Review, and got myself a copy.  I'm half way through, and I like it!

My fabric is a cotton voile by Amy Butler

It's a nice pattern, and the first time I have tried a New Look pattern.  The instructions are nice - they remind me of 1930s instructions - a bunch of illustrations down the center, with text to the side.  I like that instead of the one direction followed by one illustration layout that most other modern patterns use.
