Easy Pleated Blouse FREE Sewing Pattern
So here is a blouse to represent you all in many different activities. For lunch with a friend, taking a long trip, going to the doctor, or even hiking, this blouse will do it all, depending on what fabric you choose. I have chosen silk because of its breathability in the soaring temperatures, particularly where I live here in Singapore. This blouse will look great with shorts, pencil skirts, skinny jeans, and pajama pants, and it goes fantastic under a suit.
Materials:
- 1 1/2 yards of Silk, Georgette, Satin, Crepe, Gauze, or Rayon. It must drape and cling to the body.
- Suggested fabrics: Satin, Crepe, or Challis Rayon (this is what is used in the white version in the photos)
- One yard of 1-inch bias tape for beginners. For experienced sewers, a 1/2-inch satin bias is an option. Or you can make your own.
- Sewing thread
- Size 9 sewing needle.
- Rotary cutter and a large mat. Fiskars makes a good set if you don't have one.
- Sewing machine
- Serger (optional)
