Sewing pattern tutorial: How to sew the Hespéride blouse?

The Hespéride blouse will add a touch of floaty, bohemian flair to your summer. Its cut is particularly crafted with well-placed cutouts and beautiful gathers in the back to add fullness (without unsightly volume, as the bust is not gathered in front). The back also features a beautiful scoop neck, closed with a wide tie. The raglan sleeve provides comfort, and its construction with stitched pleats at the sleeve ends ensures an impeccable shoulder line. And you can make the pattern with or without a button placket in front. See the pattern

The finishes are very clean: lined top of the busts in front and back, sheathed armhole seams, bias binding for a clean sleeve head... This pretty blouse will make you proud to wear a hand-sewn garment.

The technical points covered in this step-by-step sewing video are:

  • Sew pleats

  • Make sheath finishes

  • Place a folded bias

  • Sew gathers

Happy sewing!
