5002 - Misses Set of Blouses (1976) Pattern Description
Four basic 70's vintage blouses. Long sleeve, short sleeve, and sleeveless. Button up front or zippered back. Which view and size did you make?
View C, Size 14 Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
Yes If not, why?
- Were the instructions easy to follow?
Yes If not, why?
- What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
Clear instructions with simple construction techniques. Fabric used
Linen blend Pattern alterations or any design changes you made or would recommend
I think I'd use a fabric with a better drape or lighter weight next time. It came out looking a little "boxy" despite the darts but I think this was due to my fabric choice, not the pattern. Because I used a white linen blend, it looked a little like a sleeveless lab coat. Would you sew this pattern again?
Yes Would you recommend this pattern to others?
Yes Any additional comments
Be aware.. there are lots of darts in this one!
