6809 Pattern Description
Pattern for a peasant style blouse with 5 sleeve variations Which view and size did you make?
I made view B (3/4 length sleeves) Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
Yes If not, why?
It looks liek the photo when on the hanger. Whe it's on a person the sleeves appear to be disproportionately wide Were the instructions easy to follow?
Yes If not, why?
- What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
I wasn't happy with the way this pattern fit when worn. It looked better on my daughter (who's much taller) but she felt the sleeves had too much fabric in them to be flattering and I had to agree with her. Fabric used
lightweight cotton woven Pattern alterations or any design changes you made or would recommend
If I made it again I'd use a different sleeve style or take some of the fullness out of the lower portion of the sleeves Would you sew this pattern again?
No Would you recommend this pattern to others?
Yes Any additional comments
I don't think I"m likely to make this again. Did you SNS what you made from this pattern? If so, add a link to your SNS here.
