She often wore a soft, loosely fitted blouse of light cotton or silk with a high collar to accentuate her slender neck. A blouse worn with a skirt became the American woman's favourite fashion. By 1905, the Sears Roebuck catalogue offered 150 versions of this blouse, from cotton to lace and taffeta.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe high-collar, back-buttoning yoke style is still just as flattering today. This blouse is lovely over a skirt or it can be cut longer to tuck in. Instructions for optional tucks and lace insertion are included.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis sewing pattern features the full-shaped front gathered into a rounded yoke, embellished in View B with clusters of tucks and lace insertion. Three-quarter length sleeves are gathered at the shoulders and into narrow cuffs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn View A, the high collar and yoke are finished with lace; in View B, rows of stitched lace replace the collar, as was the fashion. Tucks and lace insertion on the body of the blouse are optional. Instructions are given in View B for a traditional bias bound cuff. The back opening and cuffs fasten with tiny buttons or hooks and eyes; clusters of gathers at centre back are held in place by narrow ties, which encircle the waist and tie in front.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e• Two blouse variations\u003cbr\u003e• Gathered front with rounded yoke\u003cbr\u003e• High collar neckline\u003cbr\u003e• Full-length gathered sleeves\u003cbr\u003e• Narrow cuffs\u003cbr\u003e• Optional lace insertion and tuck details\u003cbr\u003e• Traditional back opening with buttons or hooks and eyes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cu\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Fabric\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSoft lightweight fabrics such as \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.croftmill.co.uk\/collections\/plain-and-printed-polycotton-fabric\"\u003ebatiste\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.croftmill.co.uk\/collections\/cotton-lawn-dressmaking-fabric\"\u003elawn\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.croftmill.co.uk\/collections\/cotton-voile-muslin-fabric\"\u003emuslin\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.croftmill.co.uk\/collections\/silk-fabrics\"\u003esilk\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.croftmill.co.uk\/collections\/gingham-fabrics\"\u003egingham\u003c\/a\u003e, or \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.croftmill.co.uk\/collections\/buy-calico-and-muslin-fabrics-online\"\u003ecalico\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eNotions\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e• Thread\u003cbr\u003e• Hooks and eyes for collar and cuffs\u003cbr\u003e• Buttons\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLace (½–¾ inch \/ 1.4–2cm wide):\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eView A\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• 1⅞ yards (1.72m) for collar and yoke edging\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eView B\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• 1½ yards (1.37m) for collar\u003cbr\u003e• 2¼ yards (2.05m) for yoke insertion\u003cbr\u003e• 9⅞ yards (9.05m) for yoke body and sleeve insertion\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Croft Mill","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56911795814732,"sku":"FWP205","price":15.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0937\/8355\/6428\/files\/Folkwear_Gibson_Girl_Blouse_Pattern_2.jpg?v=1773156784","url":"https:\/\/www.croftmill.fr\/products\/folkwear-gibson-girl-blouse-pattern-s-m-3xl","provider":"Croft Mill","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
