Hannah Flounce Blouse Pattern Tester Roundup Part 1

 

Good day to you all my lovely sew’ist friends. And a big thankyou – and welcome – to our Hannah Flounce Blouse Pattern Tester Roundup Part 1.

 

Our pattern testers – aka our roadies – have made some absolutely beautiful Hannah Flounce Blouse. And all have achieved an absolutely extraordinary fit. 

 

The key to the Hannah Flounce Blouse is its fabulous – and of course bang on trend – flounce that is stitched in between the vertical princess panels of the body of the garment.

 

The flounces elevates the garment to the next level and also creates a look that is modern and extremely complimentary to all. 

 

Of course, the flounces can certainly be altered – some of our roadies trimmed back theirs to suit their body frame. Whereas a few others kept the flounces are per the pattern pieces.

 

Either way – using a gorgeous floral – or a solid – the Hannah Flounce Blouse makes it the perfect point of difference for any outfit combination.

 

 

So, let’s start our pattern tester roundups my friends – part 1 of the Hannah Flounce Blouse.

I’m Mieke from Belgium.
This beautiful fabric is a deadstock viscose from Just Eve that I bought at The fabric sales while I was inna buying stop I really couldn’t resist this multicolor floral fabric.
I went for the Hannah Flounce blouse with long sleeves. There are a lot of sewing techniques you need. Enjoy the process step by step and spend a lot of attention to all the techniques for the most beautiful result
I’m wearing my Hannah blouse on a jeans with my purple ankle boots. But there are a lot of stylings possible. I think it will also very beautiful on a skirt.
I lengthened the blouse with 4 centimeters and the sleeves with 8 centimeters. The armpits are lowered with 1,5 centimeters. This alterations I always need.
I was wearing my Hannah blouse at home and everybody likes it here. I’m so in love with the beautiful fit and the match with the fabric. The buttons also match so well and are incredibly lovely. https://www.instagram.com/sewista_mc

 

Hello, I am Marieke and I am from the Netherlands.
The new Hannah blouse is simply adorable!
With or without the flounce, playing with the front and/ or back darts and different sleeve lengths you can make yourself any style of blouse! And I even haven’t said anything about what fabrics can do..
I choose for a nice blue cotton voile fabric to make myself a simple blouse with giving the flounces all the attention.
The sewing is super satisfying! It’s not a difficult pattern, so just cut and have a relaxed sew!
As always the fit is spot on and easy to dress up or down.
My next one is almost finished and since I don’t have to complain about my fabric stash, I am sure many will follow!

Hi! I’m Sue from South Dakota. This spring-like fabric was purchased at a local Hobby Lobby. It is a lightweight cotton woven. I haven’t sewn with a woven for a while so making this top was a treat! I chose the short-sleeved version since spring seems to have finally arrived! I made only one alteration to my beautiful blouse and that was a sway-back adjustment. This is typical for me with all pattern companies. I played with the finish on the ruffle and settled on a three-thread rolled hem using my serger. It is such a beautiful and clean look. I’ve already purchased more lightweight cotton fabrics to make this blouse again! I think it would be so cute sleeveless! I’d love it if you’d check out my IG page and see more of my makes! https://www.instagram.com/sue_glasparrott/

 

He everyone, I’m Shardee from the Netherlands.
My Hannah blouse is made of viscose , bought by https://www.goedkopestoffen.com/…/ecovero-lenzing…/
The Hannah isn’t hard to sew, but I recommend to sew a toile to see what you need to ” change ” so it fits you’re body perfectly.
Also try the hem of the flounce on a scrap piece, my fabric wasn’t happy with the hemmed flounce, so I rolled hemmed it.

Hello, my name is Elise and I live in Queensland Australia. I love this pattern, because the flounce adds that a touch of extra. I made my tops out of cotton and cotton voile. Both are light weight with enough structure to support the flounce. When sewing, just make sure you line up the button placket correctly, otherwise your collar won’t fit. I learned a new skill with this sew, I set my overlocker up to do a rolled hem, it was pretty easy. I wore my Hannah last week and received so many compliments. My favourite comment was “seeing you in this top makes me feel happy”. I love wearing bright colours and sharing the happiness from dopamine dressing. I have been wearing my top paired with the Paige Skirt another fab pattern from Designer Stitch.

 

My name is Prisca… I’m a Belgian girl living in the Nethetlands.
For the Hannah blouse I used a linen fabric @merchantandmills. For the waistcoat a quilted cotton @merchantandmills
When using a fabric with a print, look carefully at how the pattern runs. When doing the ruffle, do the same height on the left and right.
For styling I went for cowboy chic
I have already worn the hannah blouse and received a lot of positive reactions. Especially on the neckline and princess seams
