Fabric Recommendations

Achieve the perfect drape and comfort with blouse fabrics that have a soft hand and fluid movement:

  • Blouse fabrics made from natural or blended fibers

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 blouse – 2 cm; all 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 (don't forget to account for paired and symmetrical pieces).

  • From main fabric:
    • Back – 2 pieces
    • Front – 1 piece on fold
    • Lower Inset – 2 pieces
    • Sleeve – 2 pieces
    • Sleeve Facing (cuff) – 4 pieces
    • Back Neckline Facing – 2 pieces
    • Front Neckline Facing – 1 piece
  • From fusible interfacing:
    • Sleeve Facing (cuff) – 4 pieces
    • Back Neckline Facing – 2 pieces
    • Front Neckline Facing – 1 piece
