First of many – Patina Blouse

Reviewed by Love, Lucie on 25th April, 2023

I’ve had my eye on this one for a while.

I think I’ve been holding off as I wanted to make a short sleeve version and it has taken a long time for spring to show its colours around here.

It comes with two neckline depth options. I made up the deeper one.

I made a size small in accordance with my bust measurement with no modifications apart for the added sleeve cuff

I made it up in the short sleeve but really disliked how, with the structure of this cotton fabric, the sleeves stood out like sails.

So, I gathered the sleeve into a cuff and am really pleased with the end effect. All the details are in my blog post https://lovelucie.org/2023/04/25/friday-pattern-company-patina-blouse/
