Nordmøre Bunad Post #5 - Blouse

Nordmøre Bunad Blouse
Check out the hand sewn detail on this beautiful blouse.
Next time, I may have to send this to the cleaners for ironing.
What a chore!

  1. Beautiful collar! Try using a strip from an old TShirt dampened to iron it. I would be hesitant about the cleaners...their irons are so hot!

  2. Nydeleg broderi! Skjorta di er vel i lin, slik som mi, og det er verkeleg vanskeleg å få det fint... den blir skrukkete ein eller annan plass, uansett kor godt og lenge eg stryk:(

    1. That's exactly it! One place would get ironed and then all of a sudden it was wrinkled again.

  3. Wow, what beautiful fabric and stitching. A true heirloom. Is it linen, or a very crisp cotton?

    1. A heavy linen. An heirloom, indeed. I better teach my daughter to iron...I don't think she utilizes one much. ;-)
