Free PDF sewing pattern: Bianca ruffled back hi-lo blouse

The pattern for today (a really sunny day – summer is here!) is the Bianca ruffled back hi-lo blouse. This is a pattern I made for myself to prepare for the hot days coming.

I have played around with this pattern and made a 3D simulation of it. Let’s check out the look!

This is the front view of the blouse. It is loose fitting with a V neck. The bust darts are slanted at the side. The front hem is slightly curved upwards.

And this is the back of the Bianca blouse. It is divided into a yoke and a ruffle lower part. The hem is curved downwards, creating a hi-lo look for the blouse.

And here’s the side view if you want to know how it looks at the side.

This is yet another super quick and easy project, and you can finish it within just one free afternoon.

The Bianca blouse can be easily mixed with shorts, jeans or skirts, and if you want to warm up a bit, put on a jacket, or a cardigan, and you are all set! Slippers, sandals or sneakers can go along well with this blouse, too.

I made the pattern in 10 sizes, from XXS to 5XL, so hopefully it will fit just almost anyone! Plus size ladies, welcome!

As usual, the pattern is made in layered PDF format where all sizes are stored in just one file. You can choose to print just your desired size(s) instead of a pile of messy pages where you have to trace your size from the colored lines. If you are not sure how to print out layered PDF files, check out my Printing Guide.

Of course, check out my Size table to see if your size is available before downloading the file.

Free PDF sewing pattern: Marissa sleeveless blouse

Summer is finally coming in Toronto! It is expected to be warm from next week, and my family is planning to bring our plants to the garden – no more bringing them out and in every day!

I am in the creative mood, and today I am sharing my new pattern for summer: the Marissa sleeveless blouse.

This simple blouse features a V shaped yoke at the front and a gathered main piece. What I love most about it is that it can cover a fat belly! Let’s say I can eat to my fullest and still don’t have to worry my tummy will show.

Let’s have a look at the blouse simulated in 3D:
