Sewing the blouse “Sina”
A flowing viscose fabric is ideal for this project since it is pleasant to wear and does not let the frills appear too intrusive. We used the the Ruffler # 86 to create even frills.
The sleeve ends are turned into a flounce by an elastic, giving the blouse another playful detail.
Our author Bea Callemeyn chose a light weight stretch fabric to recreate the “Sina” blouse for herself. You can find her step-by-step tutorial with additional tips and tricks here: Tutorial for the Sina blouse

So beautiful look blouse. Nice petten.
The blouse looks cute & looking through the directions appears straight forward. Sleeve variations are nice to do with this type of blouse for indoors or out. Will give it a try
Glad to hear you like it and give it a try! 🙂 I would love to see a picture of your finished blouse.
