New (old) Pattern - A Versatile Blouse



This is a 'new & improved' version of my original pattern. Everything about it has been revamped, from the pattern pieces themselves to the instruction manual, which now includes detailed illustrations and clearer steps.

I call it a Versatile Blouse pattern because I've used it to make a few different renditions; with a band collar, with an open keyhole front neckline, as a mini dress by extending the hemline.

   
Original neckline, with front waist darts left unstitched for a looser fit



With a narrow band collar, all darts stitched for a more fitted shape.
 


With a shaped neckline, no facings but finished with binding, including the bottom hem
 All darts stitched.



With a boat neckline; made by first extending the shoulder line, which then also allowed for the inclusion of the cap sleeves after redrawing the armscye.
Length of the blouse extended into a mini dress.







I plan to do extension tutorials on how to adapt the pattern for all the versions listed above, possibly plus a few more.  Further details of the pattern can be found here, where you can also purchase it.
