This is a pattern for the Florence blouse.

A really pretty gathered sleeve style with two variations on the design, the waterfall frill front looks great in print or plain, finish the edge with a narrow ric rac or fancy stitch. For an edgy look try the bow neck detail, a plain fabric will highlight the detail as well as the shaped back yoke and front body seams, topstitch them for extra show.

This style has a cuff with easy pleat fastening which is a great quick and simple way of creating a functional cuff without the extra work of including a split or placket opening.

Make this style in sizes 2Y to 10Y

  1. Tasha –

    One of the most professional PDF patterns I’ve worked with. All the seams and techniques look a bit intimidating at first, but the instruction walk you through it with no headache at all. It took me way less time than I expected, and I even changed mine up a bit, too! http://glitterandwit.com/2014/11/want-christmas-florence.html

  2. Sara –

    I love this pattern! The end result is amazing! The instructions are very very good, thorough and easy to follow. The pattern pieces have notches so you can easily put everything together. And the construction method is super professional. This will definitely be one of my go-to patterns from now on!

  3. Kim –

    I love this pattern! The blouse has a very sweet look. I plan to make a bunch! Although it looks like it would be difficult to sew, it was not at all. Very easy and much quicker than I had thought and the result has such a professional look. : )

  4. Toya –

    Great pattern for a slim-fit shirt. I particularly like the construction details which taught me methods I hadn’t used before.

  5. Alexis wright –

    Great Top Pattern that can be changed up or used as it to make a very stylish trendy blouse. Great and easy to read instructions! Also very helpful illustrations.

  6. Olu –

    Oh! how I love this pattern. Anna’s 15 years of experience shines through in the construction of this blouse. I certainly learnt some new tricks.

    I turned my Florence into a dress for Christmas, check it out…

  7. Ashley –

    The Florence is a beautiful pattern that leaves lots of room for the imagination to run wild. We loooove how you can keep it simple for one look, then go bold with using the flounce. Great job 🙂

The imaginative Balloon Fold Dress can be worn not one, not two but three different ways, how’s that for multifunctional? Simply fling it on and wear it full length. Tuck it up and under and you’ve got a short puffball dress. Pull it up and over to waist height and you’ve got a trendy skirt and top.

This playful, interactive Balloon Fold Dress will keep your child amused all day long. We know one little girl who likes to hide snacks in the fold of the skirt to be eaten throughout the day. And another who likes to keep her kitten close by, snuggled inside. But beware if your little one likes playing with small creatures, they might just end up inside too.
