Visiting us today from our Advisors Circle<\/a> is Camelia<\/a>. Some of her previous contributions have been her Terrace Dresses<\/a>, Neighborhood Sweatshirts<\/a>, Afternoon Tea Blouse<\/a> and How to Draft Trouser Pockets tutorial<\/a>. Now she\u2019s here to tell us all about her latest make. Take it away Camelia!<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Liesl<\/a><\/p>\n

The Breezy Blouse<\/a> pattern was love at first sight! This is really my perfect kind of top that I would wear on hot summer days. I loved the blue version from the pattern envelope. That side panel offers possibilities for a lot of details and having cup sizing makes this pattern even nicer.<\/p>\n

\"Liesl<\/a><\/p>\n

I knew this top would be a perfect match for my Liesl + Co. Extra-Sharp Pencil Skirt<\/a> and because I don’t tuck my tops in, I decided to make the top shorter. I took 7.5 cm off at the “shorten line,” and I kept the nice original hem shape. I had this light blue cotton which I knew would make a truly breezy top and to give it a bit of interest I decided to add piping.<\/p>\n

\"piping\"<\/a><\/p>\n

To make the piping I used some crazy but beautiful colored satin. It had Italian house facades on it, but in the piping you see only different colors. I had no “real” piping cord, so I used some yarn. I pressed it a bit to stretch it out and it worked great. Here on the Oliver + S blog there are some great tutorials on piping, you can find them here<\/a> and here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Liesl<\/a><\/p>\n

I added the piping at the side panel seams, armholes, and neckline. I really love the result, and I think this is a great way to give a bit of interest to a simple garment.<\/p>\n

\"Liesl<\/a><\/p>\n

I love this top! The cotton makes it very nice to wear and it is really perfect for my pencil skirt. I plan to make more Breezy Blouses. This is a great pattern and also because it needs only a bit of fabric it can be a great way to use those scraps of fabric<\/a> that are in my stash.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
