TUTO : transformez le patron RENDEZ-VOUS en une blouse à pompons !

TUTORIAL: transform the RENDEZ-VOUS pattern into a blouse with pompoms!

Today, I'm giving you a TUTO to easily transform the RENDEZ-VOUS pattern into a blouse with pompoms... The RENDEZ-VOUS blouse is a blouse with raglan sleeves, with a yoke that forms a knot on the front. For this new version, we will remove the bow, add a slit on the front and a cord with 2 pompoms! CUT: cut the "Front", "Back" and "Sleeve" pieces as explained on the pattern. Cut out the facing of the slit, by cutting a rectangle 10 cm high, by 7 cm wide.

Boss "Working girl"!

The NEW WOMAN BOSS is online!!! Here is "WORKING GIRL", an elegant shirt pattern, with ruffles and piped button placket! "Working girl" is also a no-brainer pattern: no darts, no collar ;-) But neat details that make all the difference.
