Sew the “Aida” blouse
“Aida” is a loose-fitting blouse that goes perfectly with pants, shorts or a skirt. With the hem tucked loosely into the waistband, it looks stylishly casual and lightweight.
Planning on a trip into the city ? Instead of jeans, try pairing it with fashionable checked pants. They are super comfortable, just right for trendy young women! The lightweight blouse is the ideal companion for this style of pants.
The pattern is available in sizes 36 to 48.
Issue 03/2020 of inspiration
The pattern and sewing instructions for the “Aida” blouse appeared in the autumn/winter 2020 issue of “inspiration”. The magazine contains many more patterns and instructions for fashion and home accessories.
The 03/2020 issue is available as a single issue in the inspiration online shop at the following link:

In addition to the handbag, the long blue coat and the spotted dress, the issue also contains many other great sewing projects, including various upcycling projects made from old jeans.

I placed order #31965 three days ago and have sent multiple emails asking for help to different Bernini emails with no response. The download link that was sent leads to a page that says “invalid order” and i am unable to download the pattern. I would really appreciate a response.
Dear Kimberly,
Thank you for reaching out! I am sorry to hear you are having trouble with the download. I just checked and realized our inspiration Magazine Team members are currently absent because of holidays, which is probably why you have not recieved an answer since the beginning of this week. I will send an email to my collegue with your info so she can get in contact with you as soon as possible.
Thank you for your patience,
Ramona from BERNINA International
Hi, Is there any way to get the instructions only in English, the patterns themselves are not an issue just the instructions. I accidently downloaded from the German site last year. Think I have done this with a few by mistake. Any help would be apprecited. Thanks
