  • Sleeveless Blouse Tutorial by Marianne Jeffrey Adventurousquilter.Blogspot.Com
    Sleeveless Blouse Tutorial By Marianne Jeffrey Adventurousquilter.blogspot.com #sleevelessblousebyAQ Quick and easy to make! 1 Fabric Requirements This blouse tutorial has been written to suit any size; you take vital measurements and decide from several options offered. You will need up to: 2 yards of cotton fabric It is highly recommended you use cotton sateen as it drapes well. However you could use quilting cotton. I have found that a high quality yet lighter & softer quilting cotton such as some of those manufactured by Art Gallery Fabrics or M & S Textiles Australia drape well for use in cotton clothing. Harmony Art Organic Design has fabulous organic cotton sateen, you can buy it here: https://organiccottonplus.com/collections/prints-harmony-art Spoonflower also has a cotton sateen available in their range and offers a multitude delightful fabric designs by indie designers: https://www.spoonflower.com/ Rayon is another fabric option that drapes well but be sure to wash and dry before making the blouse to preshrink! Lightweight linen is also a great option or a linen/rayon blend! In dressmaking it is common for sewists to make a “wearable muslin” In simple terms a “muslin” involves making a ‘test’ garment from cheap fabric such as muslin to perfect the garment size, cut etc before using high quality fabrics for the final garment. A “wearable muslin” is made from cheaper quality fabric than your final garment, so that it is a wearable piece of clothing once it is complete! If you choose to do this you can shop the clearance aisle of large retailers such as Joann, Hobby Lobby, Walmart, Spotlight etc to buy cheap yardage for your test garment.
