Sewing pattern tutorial: How to sew the Bellini blouse?
You want to sew your first blouse without difficulty, then follow me in the step by step of the Bellini sewing pattern !
This pretty model will be perfect for learning how to sew a blouse or shirt easily: it does not have a collar, sewing the slit at the bottom of the sleeve is made easier by a 2-part sleeve construction (so no tear-proof slit or capuchin tab), the bottom of the garment is straight so you will not have to deal with a rounded hem.
Bellini, on the other hand, has some very pretty details for a unique piece of sewing: pleats on the shoulders which will be repeated on the back of the garment, a clean back ensured by a sheath assembly, a beautiful open neckline, a supple line, very comfortable to wear outside or tucked into the pants.
You can sew your pattern with many different fabrics depending on the desired result: sophisticated in Lily viscose jacquard or silk, more casual in cotton or chambray, light as a breath and ultra sparkling in our striped viscose voiles or our printed poplins .
