The Marnie Blouse pattern really appealed to me from the moment I first saw it... those little undulating tucks just add the perfect amount of detail and with options to add ruffles or not, it can be customised to suit everyone.
I am definitely not one for puff or flounce or ruffles so I omitted the yoke and collar ruffles and kept mine very simple.
Its sewn from a plain white double gauze from Spotlight so it was a pretty economical make .. I would love to try one in a soft viscose fabric next.
It was such a lot of fun to sew... I really enjoyed the process of creating the tiny undulating tucks and joining the panels ..watching it take shape. I made the Size 5 and I am really happy with the fit. I would possibly add slightly more length for future versions. Its closed at the back with a little button and loop so there arent any fussy fastenings to deal with.
