Biscayne Blouse Testers

Women's Patterns

I had a fantastic group of testers for the Biscayne!  This wasn’t a super quick sew, especially before it was perfected, and they were all troopers.  They contributed so much to this pattern and I can’t thank them enough!  I wanted them to get a little recognition for their hard work and also show off their beautiful blouses, so here they are!  Enjoy 🙂

 

Ami-May from Stitching Insane made two lovely versions in beautiful fabrics (and paired it with harem pants that she also made!)Ami

 

Andreia from In a Manner of Sewing is rocking the soft prints.  That floral absolutely kills me I love it so much.  And how adorable is her little photobomber?!Andreia

Dana from WaterPenny made this beautiful soft navy top.  She also reports that the shirt works great for nursing!Dana

 

This gorgeous vibrant blouse is from Vanessa of East and Eden!  How pretty are those metallic accents?  And just when you thought this fabric was totally unaccessible, she says she got it from Hobby Lobby!!VanessaCollage

Suzanne from Heartmade by Suzy made this super cute polka dot version.  I love how her model here styled it with that hat!!  SuzanneCollage

Stacey from All Sewn up by Stacey is a return tester for Hey June and she hit it out of the park once again!  Great shirt, great fabric, great pictures!  (seriously, her garden!)  She also wore it with a belt cinched at the waist, which is really cute styling option.StaceyCollage

Maria from Fairies, Bubbles, & Co made this light summery blouse with a cute print and some really precise sewing.  Check out that welt pocket perfection!MariaCollage

This beautiful, bold, colorful blouse is from Jackie.  She looks like a straight-up model, right?  These sunny pictures make me so excited for summer!

Diana from Miss Castelinhos made her Biscayne with soft drapey rayon for the back and chambray for the front!  I love the idea of color and/or fabric blocking!Diana

Believe it or not, Cat classified herself as a beginner garment sewist.  But her Biscayne turned out beautifully!  She was so awesome to take on testing this blouse and she nailed it!catcollage

 

Jana from Drachen Babies made a cute lightweight blouse, perfect for summer (and she has the cutest hair!)jana

This beautiful drapey blouse is made by Sara from Made by Sara.  I love this fabric for this pattern!SaraCollage

You ladies rock, thank you so much to all my testers!

After five different iterations, I've settled on w After five different iterations, I've settled on what I believe to be the easiest and most guaranteed successful way to sew convex and concave "V"s. (Spoiler: simple is almost always best!). Luckily this one didn't take too much experimentation.  I can remember a few tricky techniques where I ended up using paper towels because I was tired of using up so much muslin 🙈⁣
⁣
Everything is figureoutable!  That's my mantra, and it's always my goal to find ways to make sewing up HJ patterns as easy as possible for you.
⁣
Excited to get this pattern out to you in the next month or so. It's been my cozy winter lockdown outfit all week ☺️⁣

I split these videos up to make it easier to find the exact step you need if you're having a little trouble.  Overall, this pocket is really straightforward and simple if you take it one step at a time!  I love the wider channel-stitched welt lips and I made mine extra cozy by using flannel for the pocket bags! ⁣

Nothing scarier than hearing the serger running in Nothing scarier than hearing the serger running in your sewing room when you're not in your sewing room 😱. But this girl decided to get up and make herself a Nikko Top and I'm so proud 🙌. I haven't really taught my kids to sew, but I'm happy they're getting into it on their own anyway.  I'll be here to nurture their interest and attach arm bindings when they ask though!  How are you approaching this skill with the next generation?⁣
