Mabel Shirred Dress & Blouse | Tilly & the Buttons | Sewing Pattern
The Mabel Shirred Dress & Blouse sewing pattern from Tilly and the Buttons is a really pretty midi length dress or peplum blouse with shirring at the sleeve cuffs and waist. Shirring is an achievable and effective technique to learn to create good fit and shape. The neckline is elasticated and square and there are options for either full-length or elbow length sleeves. The sleeves are voluminous, elasticated at the shoulder, and the shirring at the cuffs can be either deep or narrow with a frill. The front neckline has a keyhole opening with faux drawstring ties and a pretty frill. The whole effect is blousy and floaty.
