Welcome, all! I'm so excited to be starting our new sew-along for
Lekala 4456. This cap sleeve blouse has front and back yokes, welts over faux pockets, and shaping darts at the bust and back.
In this first session, we'll be doing the un-glamorous (but necessary) prep work for the print-at-home pattern. But don't despair! By the end of the session, you'll have a custom-fit paper pattern, including seam allowances, that will serve you for years to come. This is such a versatile pattern, you could make a blouse from every kind of fabric, in every color of the rainbow!
Today's agenda
- Get your Lekala 4456 pattern (5 minutes)
- Print the PDF and tape the pattern together (30-60 minutes)
- Estimate yardage needed (15 minutes)
- Gather tools and supplies (5 minutes)
All told, these activities will take about
60 to 90 minutes to complete.
