Introduce a women's blouse pattern featuring a delicate keyhole neckline and gracefully flowing flutter sleeves, designed for comfort and effortless style.

When To Wear

This versatile blouse is perfect for a range of occasions, offering comfort and style, making it an ideal choice for:

  • Everyday Elegance: A stylish and comfortable option for daily wear, seamlessly transitioning from day to evening.
  • Smart Casual Gatherings: Ideal for social events, lunch dates, or relaxed outings where a polished yet comfortable look is desired.

Key Design Features

Silhouette: A relaxed fit blouse with a slightly A-line shape, offering ease of movement and a flattering drape.

Neckline: Features a classic round neck with a prominent keyhole opening at the front for a decorative detail.

Closure: A single button and fabric loop closure elegantly secure the keyhole opening at the front neckline.

Sleeves: Designed with short, wide flutter sleeves that are set into the armholes, providing a soft, draped effect.

Front: Incorporates bust darts on the front for subtle shaping and an improved fit.

Hem: Finished with a gently curved hemline, adding a refined touch to the garment's silhouette.

Level Of Difficulty

Intermediate. Requires familiarity with working with knit fabrics, constructing bust darts, creating a fabric loop, setting in sleeves, and applying facings.

Fabric Recommendations

Choose knit fabrics with good drape and stretch for optimal comfort and the intended flutter sleeve effect:

  • Knit fabric with medium or high stretch
  • Natural or blended fiber knits

Additional Supplies

  • Knit fusible interfacing
  • 1 button

Fabric & Materials

Fabric recommendations: medium to high stretch knit fabric made from natural or blended fibers. Also needed: knit fusible interfacing; 1 button. For finishing: LACE TRIM 1.5-2 cm wide is needed to cover seams. Also, SATIN BIAS BINDING is needed for the "BONING".

CUTTER'S MUST

IF THE PATTERNS HAVE A DOUBLE CONTOUR, THEY INCLUDE SEAM ALLOWANCES. IF THE CONTOUR IS SINGLE, THE PATTERNS DO NOT INCLUDE SEAM ALLOWANCES. SEAM ALLOWANCES: hem allowance for the garment and sleeve hem – 1.5 cm, neckline allowance for the front – 0.5 cm; other seams 1 cm. ATTENTION! FIRST, PRINT OUT THE PAPER PATTERNS AND LAY THEM OUT ON THE FABRIC WIDTH (fabric width can be from 90 cm to 150 cm) TO DETERMINE HOW MUCH MATERIAL YOU WILL NEED.

  • From main fabric:
    • Back – 1 piece on fold
    • Front – 1 piece on fold
    • Sleeve – 2 pieces
    • Back neckline facing – 1 piece
    • Front neckline facing – 1 piece
  • From fusible interfacing:
    • Back neckline facing – 1 piece
    • Front neckline facing – 1 piece

Tip: Knit fabric pieces are stitched with a special elastic or narrow zigzag stitch. When serging, trim seam allowances to 0.6 – 0.8 cm. The hem allowance is topstitched with a twin needle to maintain elasticity.

Sewing Instructions

WHEN STITCHING PIECES, PAY ATTENTION TO THE NOTCHES - THEY MUST MATCH!

  1. Fuse interfacing to the designated pieces.
  2. Stitch darts on the front. Press dart allowances upwards.
  3. Stitch side and shoulder seams, press allowances towards the back and serge.

  5. Stitch shoulder seams of neckline facings, press allowances open. Serge the outer edge. Place facing and garment right sides together, stitch the neckline edge and the decorative front cutout, inserting the hanging loop. Clip allowances at curves, trim at corners. Turn right side out, straighten, press. Topstitch along the neckline 0.5 cm from the edge to secure.
  6. Stitch sleeve seam, press allowances towards the back and serge. Set sleeves into armholes, press allowances and serge.
