Skill Level

This blouse is aimed at an intermediate sewer. There’s nothing too tricky here though if you’ve made a garment or two before and your confidence is building. No zips, buttonholes, gathering, and just one button to sew on. The neck facings require a lightweight interfacing.

1. 30cm of 90cm wide fusible lightweight interfacing. Vilene H180 is a perfect weight. 2. 1x button for the back neck around 11mm.
