I am back with one more pattern of saree blouse and this time it is a stylized an OFF Shoulder Raglan sleeve saree blouse with armhole princess line. This pattern was requested by one of the subscribers.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />

So let's start with step-wise pattern making of yet another stylized OFF Shoulder Raglan sleeve saree blouse with armhole princess line.<br />
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Blouse pattern has (1) Off-Shoulder, (2) Raglan sleeve and (3) Armhole princess line in Front. This blouse will have a back opening with darts.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
To make a stylised OFF Shoulder Raglan sleeve saree blouse with armhole princess line, all measurements must be taken with great care for precise results. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6;"><b><u><i>Some Tip:-</i></u></b> It is very important that you wear your best-fit undergarment (i.e. Bra) in order to get the most accurate measurements. If you think the bra is loose, adjust the straps accordingly, before taking blouse measurements. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6;">You can wear a padded bra, though it's optional.</span><br />
<b><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large;">Measurements required:-</span><span style="color: red; font-size: x-large;"> </span></b>(in centimetres)<br />

You can also use different fabrics (i.e. plain, printed, embroidered etc) to get variations.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<u><b><i>Some Tips</i></b></u>:- when preparing the fabric for draft placement & cutting:--</div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1) If using the basic woven cotton material, then straighten the fabric by slightly stretching it diagonally to align the warp & weft at a right angle.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2) Iron the fabric always to make it crease free prior to marking/placing the draft over it.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3) If you are a beginner, prefer making the draft on paper and then pin it to the fabric.</div>
</div>

So let's start with step-wise pattern making of yet another <span style="color: #e06666;"><b><i>Scalloped shaped Deep Neck Saree Blouse</i></b></span>.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
This deep neckline saree blouse will have only big waist dart in front and basic waist dart at back. You can give any neckline shape of your choice but I have given a <b>slightly wavy scalloped shape</b> to both Front and Back neckline. I have also given slightly wavy shape to the hemline of blouse but you may keep it basic. This blouse will have a back opening.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
To make a stylised Deep Neck Blouse, all measurements must be taken with great care for precise results. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6;"><b><u><i>Some Tip:-</i></u></b> It is very important that you wear your best-fit undergarment (i.e. Bra) in order to get the most accurate measurements. If you think the bra is loose, adjust the straps accordingly, before taking blouse measurements. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6;">You can wear a padded bra, though it's optional.</span><br />
<b><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large;">Measurements required:-</span><span style="color: red; font-size: x-large;"> </span></b>(in centimetres)</div>

<b>The fabric used:-</b> For making a Deep Neck saree blouse, you can use thin Poplin, 2 x 2, Khadi, Cambric, Organdy, Taffeta, Satin, Voile etc. However, if you are a beginner, prefer using Cotton Voile fabric. You can also use different fabrics (i.e. plain, printed, embroidered etc) to get variations.</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<u><b><i>Some Tips</i></b></u>:- when preparing the fabric for draft placement & cutting:--</div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1) If using the basic woven cotton material, then straighten the fabric by slightly stretching it diagonally to align the warp & weft at the right angle.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2) Iron the fabric always to make it crease free prior to marking/placing the draft over it.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3) If you are a beginner, prefer making the draft on paper and then pin it to the fabric.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0b5394;">*Once you are successfully making a basic blouse you can do variations with use of different neckline shapes for front and back; different types of sleeves; try making with different fabrics like printed/ embroidered/ checkered/striped etc. Do try and let me know in the comments box below. :)</span></div>

<br />
So let's start with step-wise pattern making of Boat Neck Saree Blouse.<br />
<br />
According to Wikipedia, A <b>boat neck</b> also called a <b>bateau neck</b> or <b>Sabrina neckline</b> is a wide neckline that runs horizontally, front and back, almost to the shoulder points, across the collarbone. It is traditionally used in nautically inspired sweaters and knitwear but is also featured in more elegant cocktail dresses and eveningwear. </div>
<div>
This neckline pattern is also widely used for various Saree blouses, Kurtis etc.<br />
<br />
Boat neckline is apt for ladies with narrow shoulders and low bust line. It's a high neck design blouse which has a stylish back having simple eyehole design. This neckline creates an illusion of a fuller bust line. You may combine this incredibly sophisticated high neckline blouse with any cotton/silk sarees or any one from your formal collection.</div>
</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
To make a Boat Neck Blouse, all measurements must be taken with great care for precise results. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6;"><b><u><i>Some Tip:-</i></u></b> It is very important that you wear your best-fit undergarment (i.e. Bra) in order to get the most accurate measurements. If you think the bra is loose, adjust the straps accordingly, before taking blouse measurements. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6;">You can wear a padded bra, though it's optional.</span><br />
<b><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large;">Measurements required:-</span><span style="color: red; font-size: x-large;"> </span></b>(in centimetres)</div>

You can also use different fabrics (i.e. plain, printed, embroidered etc) to get variations.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<u><b><i>Some Tips</i></b></u>:- when preparing the fabric for draft placement & cutting:--</div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1) If using a basic woven cotton material, then straighten the fabric by slightly stretching it diagonally to align the warp & weft at a right angle.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2) Iron the fabric always to make it crease free prior to marking/placing the draft over it.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3) If you are a beginner, prefer making the draft on paper and then pin it to the fabric.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0b5394;">*Once you are successful making a basic blouse you can do variations with use of different types of sleeves; try making with different fabrics like printed/ embroidered/ checkered/striped etc. Do try and let me know in the comments box below.</span>☺</div>

In this post, I will explain yet another simple and basic saree blouse pattern which was requested by one of the follower. The pattern is of Basic Saree Blouse with Basque (patti).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So let's start with it's step-wise pattern making.</div>
</div>
<script async="" src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>
<br />
<ins class="adsbygoogle" data-ad-client="ca-pub-1982638891803169" data-ad-format="fluid" data-ad-layout="in-article" data-ad-slot="1743018902" style="display: block; text-align: center;"></ins><script>

<ins class="adsbygoogle" data-ad-client="ca-pub-1982638891803169" data-ad-format="fluid" data-ad-layout="in-article" data-ad-slot="1743018902" style="display: block; text-align: center;"></ins>Fabric used:- For making a basic saree blouse with basque, blouse fabric should be matching to saree. You can use thin Poplin, 2 x 2, Khadi, Cambric, Organdy, Taffeta, Satin, Voile etc. However, if you are a beginner, prefer using Cotton Voile fabric.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
To make a Saree Blouse with Basque (patti) and sleeve, all measurements must be taken with great care for precise results.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><b><u><i>Some Tip:-</i></u></b> It is very important that you wear your best fit under garment (i.e. Bra) in order to get the most accurate measurements. If you think the bra is loose, adjust the straps accordingly, before taking blouse measurements. You can wear a padded bra, though its optional.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
1) If using basic woven cotton material, then straighten the fabric by slightly stretching it diagonally to align the warp & weft at right angle.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2) Iron the fabric always to make it crease free prior to marking / placing the draft over it.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3) If you are a beginner, prefer making the draft on paper and then pin it to fabric.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #3d85c6;">* It is a very basic blouse pattern with sleeve. However, once you are successful making a basic blouse you can do variations with use of different neckline shapes for front and back; different types of sleeves; try making with different fabrics like, printed/ embroidered/ checkered / striped etc. Do try and let me know in the comments box below.☺</span></div>

Raglan sleeve style of saree blouse does not have sleeves attached to arm curve unlike other basic saree blouses. These sleeves are attached to front and back of blouse starting either from 1/3rd or half of neckline shape to either 1/3rd or below armhole curve. [According to Wikipedia, the word 'Raglan sleeve' is named after <b>Lord Raglan</b>, who is said to have worn a coat with this style of sleeve after the loss of his arm in the Battle of Waterloo. The <b>Raglan sleeve</b> was invented by a coat producer Aquascutum for Lord Raglan to allow him room to use his sword in battle.] </div>

To make Raglan Sleeve Saree Blouse, all measurements must be taken with great care for precise results.<br />
<span style="color: #3d85c6;"><b><i><u>Some Tip</u></i></b>:- It is very important that you wear your best fit under garment (i.e. Bra) in order to get the most accurate measurements. If you think the bra is loose, adjust the straps accordingly, before taking blouse measurements.<br />You can wear a padded bra, though its optional.</span><br />
<span style="color: #3d85c6;"><br /></span>

<b>Fabric used:-</b> For making a Raglan sleeve blouse, you can use thin Poplin, 2 x 2, Khadi, Cambric, Satin, Voile etc. However, if you are beginner, prefer using pure cotton fabric for making this style of blouse.<br />
<br />
You can also use different fabrics (i.e. plain, printed, embroidered etc) to get variations.</div>

<u><b><i>Some Tips</i></b></u>:- when preparing the fabric for draft placement & cutting:--</div>
</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<ins class="adsbygoogle" data-ad-client="ca-pub-1982638891803169" data-ad-format="fluid" data-ad-layout="in-article" data-ad-slot="1743018902" style="display: block; text-align: center;"></ins></div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1) If using basic woven cotton material, then straighten the fabric by slightly stretching it diagonally to align the warp & weft at right angle.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2) Iron the fabric always to make it crease free prior to marking / placing the draft over it.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3) If you are a beginner, prefer making the draft on paper and then pin it to fabric.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0b5394;">*Once you are successful making a basic blouse you can do variations with different types of necklines; try making with different fabrics like, printed/ embroidered/ checkered / striped etc. Do try and let me know in the comments box below. :)</span></div>

Shirt style Blouse can be combined with Skirt, Trousers or Jeans. Since this style of blouse has collar and hem shaping as shirt, it is called as the Shirt style Blouse.<br />
<br />
In this post I have shown stepwise pattern making of Shirt style Blouse. This Blouse will have a basic Sleeve, Shirt collar pattern with rounded corners and will be till hip length. You can always do a variation in the sleeve length. This style of blouse will have side seam oblique dart in front and waist darts in both front and back.<br />
<br />

To make a Shirt style Blouse, all measurements must be taken with great care for precise results. <br />
<span style="color: #3d85c6;"><b><i><u>Some Tip</u></i></b>:- It is very important that you wear your best fit under garment (i.e. Bra) in order to get the most accurate measurements. If you think the bra is loose, adjust the straps accordingly, before taking blouse measurements. <br />You can wear a padded bra, though its optional.</span></div>

<b>Fabric used:-</b> For making a Shirt style blouse, you can use thin Poplin, 2 x 2, Khadi, Cambric, Satin, Voile etc. However, if you are beginner, prefer using pure cotton fabric for making this style of blouse. Length of fabric should be 2.5 meters and width can be 36" (for Small / Medium size) & 44" / 48" (for Large / XL size).<br />
<br />
You can also use different fabrics (i.e. plain, printed, embroidered etc) to get variations.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<u><b><i>Some Tips</i></b></u>:- when preparing the fabric for draft placement & cutting:--</div>
</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<ins class="adsbygoogle" data-ad-client="ca-pub-1982638891803169" data-ad-format="fluid" data-ad-layout="in-article" data-ad-slot="1743018902" style="display: block; text-align: center;"></ins></div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1) If using basic woven cotton material, then straighten the fabric by slightly stretching it diagonally to align the warp & weft at right angle.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2) Iron the fabric always to make it crease free prior to marking / placing the draft over it.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3) If you are a beginner, prefer making the draft on paper and then pin it to fabric.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0b5394;">*Once you are successful making a basic blouse you can do variations with different types of sleeves; try making with different fabrics like, printed/ embroidered/ checkered / striped etc. Do try and let me know in the comments box below. :)</span></div>

Hi everyone,</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Hope you all enjoyed my earlier post on <a href="http://exploringdesigns.blogspot.com/2017/12/how-to-make-high-neck-saree-blouse.html">High Neck Saree Blouse with armhole princess line</a>. In this post, I will be sharing yet another style of saree blouse pattern named <b>Stand "V" blouse</b>. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In this style of saree blouse, the back of blouse neckline is cut from nape of back (i.e. back neck bone). Front of blouse neckline is given a "V" shape and a stand piece is stitched around the neck, hence the name, "Stand 'V' Blouse". I have combined this pattern with Mutton Puff sleeve style.</div>

Fyi (in case you are new to little blog of mine☺), in my previous few posts, I have explained pattern making of some very common saree blouse patterns like <a href="http://exploringdesigns.blogspot.co.uk/2017/02/saree-blouse-without-sleeve.html">Simple Sleeveless Blouse</a>, <a href="http://exploringdesigns.blogspot.co.uk/2017/02/saree-blouse-with-sleeve.html">Basic Saree Blouse with Sleeve</a>, <a href="http://exploringdesigns.blogspot.co.uk/2017/02/katori-blouse-with-sleeve.html">Double Katori Blouse</a>, <a href="http://exploringdesigns.blogspot.co.uk/2017/04/how-to-make-one-piece-katori-blouse.html">One Piece Katori Blouse</a> and also some simple stylized <a href="http://exploringdesigns.blogspot.com/2017/06/how-to-make-sun-rays-neckline-saree.html">Sun-rays Neckline Saree Blouse</a>, <a href="http://exploringdesigns.blogspot.com/2017/08/sari-blouse-with-back-smocking-free.html">Saree Blouse with Back Smocking</a> and <a href="http://exploringdesigns.blogspot.com/2017/12/how-to-make-high-neck-saree-blouse.html">High Neck Saree Blouse</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So let's start with step-wise pattern making of yet another stylized Stand "V" Saree Blouse.<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
To make a stylized Stand "V" Blouse, all measurements must be taken with great care for precise results. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6;"><b><u><i>Some Tip:-</i></u></b> It is very important that you wear your best fit under garment (i.e. Bra) in order to get the most accurate measurements. If you think the bra is loose, adjust the straps accordingly, before taking blouse measurements. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6;">You can wear a padded bra, though its optional.</span><br />
<b><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large;">Measurements required:-</span><span style="color: red; font-size: x-large;"> </span></b>(in centimetres)</div>

You can also use different fabrics (i.e. plain, printed, embroidered etc) to get variations.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1) If using basic woven cotton material, then straighten the fabric by slightly stretching it diagonally to align the warp & weft at right angle.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2) Iron the fabric always to make it crease free prior to marking / placing the draft over it.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3) If you are a beginner, prefer making the draft on paper and then pin it to fabric.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0b5394;">*Once you are successful making a basic blouse you can do variations with use of different neckline shapes for front; different types of sleeves; try making with different fabrics like, printed/ embroidered/ checkered / striped etc. Do try and let me know in the comments box below. :)</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: justify;">Hello everyone,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I am back with one more pattern of saree blouse and this time it is a stylized High neckline saree blouse with armhole princess line. This pattern was requested by one of the subscribers.</div><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody></tbody></table>Fyi (in case you are new to little blog of mine☺), in my previous few posts, I have explained pattern making of some very common saree blouse patterns like <a href="http://exploringdesigns.blogspot.co.uk/2017/02/saree-blouse-without-sleeve.html">Simple Sleeveless Blouse</a>, <a href="http://exploringdesigns.blogspot.co.uk/2017/02/saree-blouse-with-sleeve.html">Basic Saree Blouse with Sleeve</a>, <a href="http://exploringdesigns.blogspot.co.uk/2017/02/katori-blouse-with-sleeve.html">Double Katori Blouse</a>, <a href="http://exploringdesigns.blogspot.co.uk/2017/04/how-to-make-one-piece-katori-blouse.html">One Piece Katori Blouse</a> and also a simple stylised <a href="http://exploringdesigns.blogspot.com/2017/06/how-to-make-sun-rays-neckline-saree.html">Sun-rays Neckline Saree Blouse</a>.<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /><br />
So let's start with step-wise pattern making of yet another stylized High Neck Saree Blouse.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
High neck saree blouse pattern will have armhole princess line in front and Chinese collar with a stripe design around neckline. This blouse will have a back opening.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
To make a stylised High Neck Blouse, all measurements must be taken with great care for precise results. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6;"><b><u><i>Some Tip:-</i></u></b> It is very important that you wear your best fit under garment (i.e. Bra) in order to get the most accurate measurements. If you think the bra is loose, adjust the straps accordingly, before taking blouse measurements. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6;">You can wear a padded bra, though its optional.</span><br />
<b><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large;">Measurements required:-</span><span style="color: red; font-size: x-large;"> </span></b>(in centimetres)</div>

<b>Fabric used:-</b> For making a High Neck saree blouse, you can use thin Poplin, 2 x 2, Khadi, Cambric, Organdy, Taffeta, Satin, Voile etc. However, is you are a beginner, prefer using Cotton Voile fabric. You can also use different fabrics (i.e. plain, printed, embroidered etc) to get variations.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<u><b><i>Some Tips</i></b></u>:- when preparing the fabric for draft placement & cutting:--</div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1) If using basic woven cotton material, then straighten the fabric by slightly stretching it diagonally to align the warp & weft at right angle.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2) Iron the fabric always to make it crease free prior to marking / placing the draft over it.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3) If you are a beginner, prefer making the draft on paper and then pin it to fabric.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0b5394;">*Once you are successful making a basic blouse you can do variations with use of different neckline shapes for front and back; different types of sleeves; try making with different fabrics like, printed/ embroidered/ checkered / striped etc. Do try and let me know in the comments box below. :)</span></div>

Well it's here. The <b><i><span style="color: #cc0000;">Tiered Dress</span></i></b> Tutorial.

Depending on the fabric you choose to make this dress, it will decide it's occasion to wear. For example; for summer wear, you can use bright pastel shades of any striped, checkered, plain cotton fabrics. Whereas if you wish to make this tiered dress for any special occasion like birthday party or wedding, then prefer using silk, satin or may be any thin brocade fabric on which gathers can be formed.</div>

In this article, I have explained detailed pattern making of a <i><span style="color: #e06666;"><b>Sari Blouse with Smocking (fine gathers) done at centre of back</b></span></i>. This style of designer sari blouse has round neckline in Front and square neckline at Back. Fine back gathers are combined with Puffed sleeves to enhance the final look of this style of sari blouse.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Fabric used:- For making a Back centre smocked blouse with puffed sleeve, blouse fabric should be matching to saree. You can use thin Poplin, 2 x 2, Khadi, Cambric, Organdy, Taffeta, Satin, Voile etc. However, is you are a beginner, prefer using Cotton Voile fabric. You can also experiment with different combinations of fabrics (i.e. plain, printed, embroidered etc) to get variations.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Fyi (in case you are new to little blog of mine☺), in my previous few posts, I have explained pattern making of some saree blouse patterns like <a href="http://exploringdesigns.blogspot.co.uk/2017/02/saree-blouse-without-sleeve.html">Simple Sleeveless Blouse</a>, <a href="http://exploringdesigns.blogspot.co.uk/2017/02/saree-blouse-with-sleeve.html">Basic Saree Blouse with Sleeve</a>, <a href="http://exploringdesigns.blogspot.co.uk/2017/02/katori-blouse-with-sleeve.html">Double Katori Blouse</a>, <a href="http://exploringdesigns.blogspot.co.uk/2017/04/how-to-make-one-piece-katori-blouse.html">One Piece Katori Blouse</a> and <a href="http://exploringdesigns.blogspot.co.uk/2017/06/how-to-make-sun-rays-neckline-saree.html" style="text-align: justify;">Sun-Rays Neckline Sari Blouse</a>.</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
So let's start with step-wise pattern making of <span style="text-align: justify;">Back smocked blouse with Puffed sleeves. In this post I have explained how to make Front draft with round neckline & darts, Back draft with smocking & darts and Puffed sleeve pattern.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
To make a Back smocked blouse with Puffed sleeves, all measurements must be taken with great care for precise results.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><i>Some Tip:-</i></b> It is very important that you wear your best fit under garment (i.e. Bra) in order to get the most accurate measurements. If you think the bra is loose, adjust the straps accordingly, before taking blouse measurements.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You can wear a padded bra, though its optional.</div>

<b><i>Some Tips</i></b>:- when preparing the fabric for draft placement & cutting:--</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1) If using basic woven cotton material, then straighten the fabric by slightly stretching it diagonally to align the warp & weft at right angle.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2) Iron the fabric always to make it crease free prior to marking / placing the draft over it.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3) If you are a beginner, prefer making the draft on paper and then pin it to fabric.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
* Once you are successful making this style of blouse you can do variations with use of different neckline shapes for front; different types of sleeves; try making with different fabrics like, printed/ embroidered/ checkered / striped etc. Do try making this blouse style pattern and let me know in the comments box below.☺</div>

Recycle old clothes to something that you can use rather than piling them up in your cupboards. Try to keep only those clothes which you use regularly / occasionally / may hold some sentimental value to it. If you are unable to recycle / reuse them, then best option is to donate such clothes (* only wearable ones). Recycle only those which don't fit you anymore and cannot be altered or are very old and are only occupying your cupboard space.</div>

<ol>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Fold the Jeans lengthwise and cut across 10 cms below the crotch.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Cut both seams of each leg. This way you will get 4 separate pieces of denim.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Mark the bag length of 45 cm on each of the 4 pieces. Remaining fabric will be used to make belt of bag.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Stitch and join 2 pieces with plain seam at 1cm and design stitch on right side. Join remaining 2 pieces same way.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Then stitch both side seams either with overlock or double sewn seam.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Stitch the base of bag with double sewn seam at 1 cm and 1.5 cms.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Pull both corners of bag base forming a triangle and stitch at 2"on both sides. Then cut extra corner keeping 1.5 cms allowance.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Stitch lining for bag in same way. You can use and old top as lining.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Put lining inside bag, seams facing each other and double fold the top of bag to do edge machining.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">From remaining fabric, make belt and flap.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Stitch Velcro / button to flap and embellish as you desire or keep it simple.</li>

We all have those tops / kurtis with beautiful prints and designs which we are unable to wear. This can happen either because they don't fit you anymore ☺ or sometimes we wear them so many times but they still look new. Usually women find it difficult to discard such tops and tend to pile them in their cupboards. I do that sometimes. ☺ I had a very pretty cotton printed kurti which doesn't fit me anymore but I didn't want to discard. This made me think of making a cute summer maxi dress for my daughter. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So I have come up with this dress pattern which is very simple to make and I can assure that by making one you can recycle your old yet beautiful cotton kurtis and make them wearable again.<br />

I have designed this dress by making -</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<ul>
<li>Inverted Box Pleat in centre at waist of front & back</li>
<li>Flared sleeve</li>
<li>Waist band with border design</li>
</ul>

</script>
To begin with, I have first made a yoke pattern of the dress which is given below. This pattern is based on measurements of a 2 year old and I have used it for cutting both front & back yoke. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-0H7eMFJ3zSQ/WW4YtrRBUZI/AAAAAAAABFk/gM1jd0RhqIU5Nr9bpfkAaU3dUwEe-eXhwCLcBGAs/s1600/child%2Bbodice.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="736" data-original-width="546" height="400" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-0H7eMFJ3zSQ/WW4YtrRBUZI/AAAAAAAABFk/gM1jd0RhqIU5Nr9bpfkAaU3dUwEe-eXhwCLcBGAs/s400/child%2Bbodice.jpg" width="295" /></a></div>
<div>
Then I made the Flared sleeve pattern. For this I used below given basic sleeve draft which is again based on measurements of 2 year old.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vFZLfOGwUu8/WW9yDiYpTrI/AAAAAAAABGc/bBt6cfN4cmo4LBiHKts9_68XEZd1nHJBQCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_20170719_145109065.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="576" data-original-width="541" height="320" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vFZLfOGwUu8/WW9yDiYpTrI/AAAAAAAABGc/bBt6cfN4cmo4LBiHKts9_68XEZd1nHJBQCLcBGAs/s320/IMG_20170719_145109065.jpg" width="299" /></a></div>
Cut and open the above given sleeve draft and then used this as STEP - 1 for making below given Flared sleeve pattern. You have to slit the basic sleeve in centre (i.e. folded paper line) and open the sleeve at hem to add flare (see STEP - 2).<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-g1jzVseoSBo/WW4o1FNIL9I/AAAAAAAABGM/4B2eYk61Ijc_f_EGj_MewNiid2P7Bcn4wCLcBGAs/s1600/flared%2Bsleeve.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="541" data-original-width="811" height="426" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-g1jzVseoSBo/WW4o1FNIL9I/AAAAAAAABGM/4B2eYk61Ijc_f_EGj_MewNiid2P7Bcn4wCLcBGAs/s640/flared%2Bsleeve.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
After making the yoke and flared sleeve draft of the Summer maxi dress, you can make inverted box pleat below waist in the dress. For making this pleat, below given is a simple diagram which explains calculation for making a Inverted Box Pleat -</div>

Romper is basically a loose, one piece garment combining of a top blouse and shorts / pants, worn by babies and young children. It can be a very pretty spring / summer wear in your little girl's wardrobe.</div>

To start with, I have made a child's basic bodice based on measurements of a 2 year old. This bodice is later used as a base to make a flutter sleeve pattern.<br />
<span style="color: #e06666; font-weight: bold;">*<u>Note</u>:-</span><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: medium;"> </span><br />
<ol>
<li>Since Romper is a loose garment, I have used same bodice for Front & Back. </li>
<li>Given bodice is based on measurements of a 2 year old child but you can make the Child's Bodice based on your child's age and measurements and then make Flutter sleeve pattern on it.</li>
</ol>
<b style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #e06666; font-size: large;">
Flutter Sleeve:-</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>STEP-1</b>:-</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<ul>
<script async="" src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>
<ins class="adsbygoogle" data-ad-client="ca-pub-1982638891803169" data-ad-format="fluid" data-ad-layout="in-article" data-ad-slot="1743018902" style="display: block; text-align: center;"></ins>
<script>
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
</script>
<li>For making the flutter sleeve pattern, I have used above given child's basic bodice.</li>
<li>To mark the new neck curve (<span style="color: blue;">blue curve</span>), go right from neck by 1.5 cms.</li>
<li>On this new neck curve, mark down 4 cms and join that point to 1/3rd of armhole as shown.</li>
<li>Whatever is the length of that new marked slant line, that will be the width of flutter sleeve. I have got the width as 9 cms.</li>
<li>Extend neck up by 4 cms to add flare to sleeve.</li>
<li>Then extend the shoulder line as shown (<span style="color: #b45f06;">brown line</span>) and from that point move up by 5 cms to mark the outer curve of sleeve.</li>
<li>Join the top extended points to complete the flutter sleeve pattern.</li>
<li><b>* Please note that you have to keep the width of sleeve as 9 cms throughout.</b></li>
<li>Mark the Flutter sleeve pattern as shown (in <span style="color: blue;">blue colour</span>). </li>
<li>Also add 2 to 4 cms down at waist for belt and ease.</li>
</ul>

</tbody></table>
<div>
<b>STEP-2</b>:-</div>
<ul>
<li>Since I have stitched the outer curve of sleeve, I had cut 4 pieces of sleeve on fold (i.e. 2 pieces on each side) but you can cut 2 pieces on fold (i.e. 1 piece on each side) and then do overlock, bidding or even attach lace to finish outer curve of sleeve.</li>
<li>Also, I have added an ease of 4 cms at waist line for belt attachment.</li>
<li>* I have also added an ease of 2-3 cms at crotch when making trouser pattern.(shown in below image showing crotch length measurement).</li>
</ul>

<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Below given Trouser pattern is made for 2 year old.</li>
<li><span style="color: #0b5394;">For making the trouser (bottom) of romper, you can measure the length of crotch from any trouser or legging of your child (as shown in below image) and add 2-3 cms for ease.</span></li>
<li>* I have added an ease of 2 cm (i.e. crotch length is 21 cms + 2 cms ease = 23 cms)</li>

Hello everyone,<br />
I am back with one more pattern of saree blouse and this time it is a simple yet stylized saree blouse. This pattern is called as the Sun-rays neckline saree blouse. This blouse has a round neckline in Front and Back. It's called as Sun-rays blouse since 'fine pin tucks' are stitched around it's neckline.<br />
<br />
<script async="" src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>
<br />
<ins class="adsbygoogle" data-ad-client="ca-pub-1982638891803169" data-ad-format="fluid" data-ad-layout="in-article" data-ad-slot="1743018902" style="display: block; text-align: center;"></ins><script>

I have taken inspiration for this pattern from my dearest mum's blouse sewing notes.☺ She had done a short course of saree blouse sewing. When I saw this pattern, I found the pin tucks neck design really interesting and so thought of sharing it with all of you.<br />
<br />
Fyi (in case you are new to little blog of mine☺), in my previous few posts, I have explained pattern making of some very common saree blouse patterns like <a href="http://exploringdesigns.blogspot.co.uk/2017/02/saree-blouse-without-sleeve.html">Simple Sleeveless Blouse</a>, <a href="http://exploringdesigns.blogspot.co.uk/2017/02/saree-blouse-with-sleeve.html">Basic Saree Blouse with Sleeve</a>, <a href="http://exploringdesigns.blogspot.co.uk/2017/02/katori-blouse-with-sleeve.html">Double Katori Blouse</a> and <a href="http://exploringdesigns.blogspot.co.uk/2017/04/how-to-make-one-piece-katori-blouse.html">One Piece Katori Blouse</a>.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So let's start with step-wise pattern making of a Sun-rays Neckline Saree Blouse.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: red;">* The pictures and instructions are offered here for free. Please don't repost any of my content without permission. Thanks!</span></b><br />

Complete cutting and stitching of the Sun-rays neckline blouse is shown in the video given below ☺<br />

To make a Sun-rays Neckline Blouse, all measurements must be taken with great care for precise results. </div>

<span style="color: #3d85c6;"><b><u><i>Some Tip:-</i></u></b> It is very important that you wear your best fit under garment (i.e. Bra) in order to get the most accurate measurements. If you think the bra is loose, adjust the straps accordingly, before taking blouse measurements. </span><br />
<span style="color: #3d85c6;">You can wear a padded bra, though its optional.</span></div>

Fabric used:- For making a Sun-rays neckline blouse, you can use thin Poplin, 2 x 2, Khadi, Cambric, Organdy, Taffeta, Satin, Voile etc. However, is you are a beginner, prefer using Cotton Voile fabric. You can also use different fabrics (i.e. plain, printed, embroidered etc) to get variations.<br />
<br />
You can also sew the fine pin tucks with matching or contrasting color thread.<br />
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<u><b><i>Some Tips</i></b></u>:- when preparing the fabric for draft placement & cutting:--</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1) If using basic woven cotton material, then straighten the fabric by slightly stretching it diagonally to align the warp & weft at right angle.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2) Iron the fabric always to make it crease free prior to marking / placing the draft over it.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3) If you are a beginner, prefer making the draft on paper and then pin it to fabric.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0b5394;">*Once you are successful making a basic blouse you can do variations with use of different neckline shapes for front and back; different types of sleeves; try making with different fabrics like, printed/ embroidered/ checkered / striped etc. Do try and let me know in the comments box below. :)</span></div>

In my previous post, I had explained pattern making of <a href="http://exploringdesigns.blogspot.co.uk/2017/02/katori-blouse-with-sleeve.html">Two Piece Katori Blouse</a> . In this article, I have explained detailed pattern making of a One Piece Katori blouse with sleeve. The Katori blouse is designed based on the natural bust shape of women. The word "Katori" derived from Hindi language means "Cup".<br />

</script> Fabric used:- For making a Katori blouse with sleeve, blouse fabric should be matching to saree. You can use thin Poplin, 2 x 2, Khadi, Cambric, Organdy, Taffeta, Satin, Voile etc. However, is you are a beginner, prefer using Cotton Voile fabric. Since the Front of this Blouse is divided in four parts you can use different combinations of fabrics (i.e. plain, printed, embroidered etc) to get variations.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
To make a Katori Blouse with sleeve, all measurements must be taken with great care for precise results. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #3d85c6;"><b><u><i>Some Tip:-</i></u></b> It is very important that you wear your best fit under garment (i.e. Bra) in order to get the most accurate measurements. If you think the bra is loose, adjust the straps accordingly, before taking blouse measurements. </span><br />
<span style="color: #3d85c6;">You can wear a padded bra, though its optional.</span></div>

<u><b><i style="background-color: cyan;"><br /></i></b></u></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<u><b><i>Some Tips</i></b></u>:- when preparing the fabric for draft placement & cutting:--</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1) If using basic woven cotton material, then straighten the fabric by slightly stretching it diagonally to align the warp & weft at right angle.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2) Iron the fabric always to make it crease free prior to marking / placing the draft over it.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3) If you are a beginner, prefer making the draft on paper and then pin it to fabric.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0b5394;">*Once you are successful making a basic blouse you can do variations with use of different neckline shapes for front and back; different types of sleeves; try making with different fabrics like, printed/ embroidered/ checkered / striped etc. Do try and let me know in the comments box below. :)</span></div>
