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 blouse and sleeve bottom – 2 cm, neckline allowance for back and front – 1.5 cm, outer sleeve edge allowance – 2 cm, other seams 0.7 cm. Attention! First, print out the paper patterns and lay them out on the fabric width (fabric width can be from 90cm to 150cm) to determine how much material you will need (do not forget to account for paired and symmetrical pieces). When stitching pieces, pay attention to the notches - they must match! Note! Markings on the patterns are made on the right side.

  • From main fabric 1:
    • Right front – 1 piece
    • Left front – 1 piece
    • Back - 2 pieces
    • Front sleeve – 2 pieces
    • Back sleeve – 2 pieces

Sewing Instructions

Tip: Knit fabric pieces are stitched with a special elastic or narrow zigzag stitch. The hem allowance is topstitched with a twin needle or on a coverstitch machine to maintain elasticity. You can also stitch pieces directly on a 3- or 4-thread overlocker.

  1. On the left front, mark and stitch the dart.
  2. Stitch the center back seam. Overlock the allowance and press it to the left side.
  3. Stitch the shoulder seams. Press the seams towards the back and overlock.
  4. Overlock, fold inwards, and topstitch the neckline allowance.
  5. Stitch the sleeves from the mark to the bottom. Fold the allowance twice by 1 cm and topstitch along the slit and seam. Set the sleeves into the armholes of the front and back accordingly. Overlock the allowances.
  6. Along the side edge of the right front, sew a stitch with loosened upper thread and gather. Lay the right front over the left, right sides up, and secure along the side edges. Fold the front and back right sides together and stitch the side seams and sleeve seams.
  7. Overlock the sleeve hem, fold inwards, and topstitch.
  8. Press the blouse hem allowance to the wrong side, overlock, and topstitch.
