Introducing the Four Seasons Blouse!
Here we have the second pattern for the Four Seasons suit set. This garment can be made on its own, or paired with a matching Four Seasons Skirt for a fabulous vintage ensemble!

The Four Seasons Blouse is a bottom up, 1930s / 1940s inspired open front top worked with a simultaneous button band. You can choose to create the elegant bishop sleeves shown here, or opt for the short sleeves version, shown on the Four Seasons Dress in the last photo.

The best part of the Four Seasons theme are the interchangeable seasonal panels! Choose from the Spring, Summer, Autumn, or Winter stitch motif, or create your own using the guide on the last page of the skirt pattern! Seasonal motifs are inserted around the front & back shoulders of the garment, and in the front panels and bottom hem of the skirt.
The blouse pictured here is in the Winter pattern!

Like always, my garment patterns use a body measurement x gauge system of pattern writing, making them fully size inclusive and tailored to your personal measurements. There are plenty of resources at Squid School to get you started on this method of pattern instruction!
