Me Made Monday

I have started participating in Me Made Monday.  I have plenty of clothing sewn by me, but I'm not working outside the home these days,so I tend to wear t-shirts and jean a lot. I should get dressed and get out the house more often,but if the weather is cold or rainy, I don't want any part of it. Sometimes I'm just not motivated. 
    Today I went to visit an art gallery,where I'm hoping to show some of my art. This is what I wore.
I made the white shirt from OOP, Mccall's 3723.
 It is a basic button down shirt with french cuffs. The fabric is cotton/poly blend. It is the only white shirt I have and this was the first time I've worn it. I made it a year ago and hung it in my closet with no buttons on it. While I was cleaning out the closet last week, I found it and sewed on some buttons. I will make a few more because, I have heard that everyone should have a few white shirts.

I agree with Carolyn. You should make more because this looks like a classic, well-made blouse.
