<p>Thanks, both of you :) I think I will be able to do it with a little combination. I've been trying to find an excuse to buy Gertie's book anyway... I'm not very good at spotting similar patterns. Now when you mention, I can see the similarities, but I could've looked at these and not seeing it by myself... So, thanks again! Now I need to do some shopping... :)</p>

<p>There is a similar neckline & skirt on a Vogue pattern here that you could extend to have a button front, and lengthen to 3/4 length sleeves:</p>

<p>Oooo, I want it too! I can't think of any patterns that match it exactly, but you could probably recreate it with a little pattern drafting.

<p>You could extend the one side and move the buttons to the left side, lose the collar shown and make your own simple standing collar. Looks like you may want to make the neckline more of a boat-neck shape, too.</p>
