Sew Over It Lilian Blouse

Buy the Lilian Blouse sewing pattern from Sew Over It. The Lilian Blouse features a button front, lovely shawl collar and choice of three sleeve lengths: short, 3/4 length or full length with a narrow cuff.

You get two blouses in one with this pattern. Sew up the double-ended darts at the front and back for a beautifully fitted blouse, or ignore the darts to create a contemporary boxy shape.

Wear Lilian with jeans for a great everyday look, or try the fitted version with the Ultimate Trousers or tucked into the Peggy Trousers or a pencil skirt for a touch of vintage.
