This pattern has been in my stash for a very long time. I always loved the style of view A but somehow never got around to making it.
Until very recently one of my students wanted to make a top like this and I took it out again. She has elongated the pattern and makes it into a dress.
The pattern was out on my table now and I decided to finally make it too, as I had this very nice viscose for which I sought a pattern.
As the centre part is not cut on the bias, as usual with this kind of neckline, this pattern really needs a fabric that drapes well. There are two more views in the envelope and they are cut on the bias. I kept the grain as indicated, as the print might look a bit weird on the bias.
That’s a beautiful blouse. Very elegant pattern.
ReplyDeleteThat's an interesting pattern. The fabric is beautiful. I love the colours.
ReplyDeleteWould you mind posting a picture of the centre pattern piece? I might able to cobble something together based on that. I like the idea of a cowl not cut on the bias. Many thanks.

ReplyDeleteHello, I sewed this top version A in a cotton and silk voile. It is very pleasant in case of strong heat and I will sew other copies. Your fabric is magnificent!
