Basic Garment Construction for adult women- Patina Blouse

Beginning garment construction. This is a multi day event meeting (3) different Saturdays. The Patina Blouse pattern will be used and students must have their own copy of the pattern. Pattern is sized XS to 7X. Pattern also includes instruction for a full bust adjustment (anything larger than a B cup). Garment fabric bundles will be available in the shop. This is a pattern for a woven fabric (blouse weight) and I strongly recommend s fabric with a slight stretch.
Fabric requirements are 3- 3.5 yards.
Class will cover the following basics
- body measurement
- selecting the correct size pattern
- layout of pattern
- construction of a collar, sleeve, bust dart, button & buttonholes and yoke
- putting it all together
- finishing techniques


The Patina Blouse is a collared, v-neck, button up top. The sleeves are full and the pattern includes options for a short sleeve or long sleeve with cuff and continuous bound placket. It comes with 2 neckline depth options and you can access free additional neckline options on this blog post. The Patina is designed for light to mid weight woven fabrics. The Patina is an essential button up blouse with a twist and is sure to be the type of top you reach for again and again.
