Of course, complicated patterns are only for learned needlewomen, but to make a light summer model of chiffon or silk is also possible for beginners in sewing. And for starters, you should learn how to sew a blouse without a pattern. This option will succeed even with a minimal set of skills.
Sewing
We take only three measurements: the width of the shoulders, the length of the future product + 5 cm and the distance between the hands with outstretched arms (+ 2–3 cm per turn). If you are still puzzled by
how to sew a blouse without a pattern, based only on this data, you will be surprised at the simplicity of the algorithm. Fold the fabric in half. Put a rectangle on it with sides equal to our last two measurements. Next, it is necessary to fold the matter again twice in the transverse direction to obtain four-layer fabric. From the obtained bend we set aside a measure equal to half the width of the shoulders + 2-3 cm for allowances. We draw two vertical lines to the future neck and unfold the fabric back. Starting from the hem, we make two vertical seams along the straight lines, not reaching 20 cm to future shoulders. On the folded edge, opposite from the hem, we make a cut for the neck (it should be 5-6 cm less than the shoulder width). If you prefer a more open version, then, knowing how to sew a blouse without a pattern of such a style, you can easily change it by making similar cuts in the sleeves as well.
Now you just have to process all the edges on the overlock and decorate the product as desired with beads, beads, lace appliques or even acrylic drawings.
Subtleties
Now you know one of the options for how to sew a blouse without a pattern and special costs. The sleeves of such a cover will gracefully fall in waves, giving femininity and tenderness, and if you make a space in the side seams for threading a thin strap, this will also emphasize your waist. To make such an image romantic and feminine, a piece of fabric should be chosen airy and flying, easily gathering in folds. Pastel color is desirable, but classic black silk can also be used. Then you can allow yourself to wear such a blouse for any business dinner, decorating with accessories: beads, bracelets, pendants.
