- I made the Patina blouse from Friday pattern co mainly drawn to the cute Chelsea collar on the front and all the delicate details. It’s for woven fabrics and I really enjoyed using a border print rayon to highlight all the features.
I’m sharing a pattern review and also the sewing of the collar, facing and neckline. Come join me!

Just BRILLIANT Karina! Well Done!
Creative use of a border print. How fun . . . and it’s super pretty.
Your blouse, sewing construction and procedures are exceptional! Everything is so perfect, I applaud you and your completed blouse! I absolutely love this style blouse. Before my cancer surgeries last year, I used to sew all my own blouses, slacks, etc. As soon as I work out the details of adjusting for a forward shoulder ball joint on the right side, I hope to resume sewing again very soon. You've really inspired me, thank you!
Such a very good job .Bravo!!! You are always a source of inspiration for many poeple .Beautifull!!!
What perfect timing! I am waiting for my patina blouse pattern to arrive any day now! Yours is the nicest version I’ve seen! You have the best explained tutorials! Thank you so much!
Lovely blouse, super fit, looks so nice on you
Beautiful blouse! Such neat and careful sewing, you did a great job.
Beautiful sewing work 😊
The pattern placement on the fabric is beautiful; the fit is spot-on. As usual with your makes, your garment is outstanding!
Thank you so much 😀😀
Using a border print is a great idea!
Thanks! It was a lot of fun 😀
I love this pattern.
Perfection Karina. You never disappoint. I'm amazed how you use the different prints in your fabric to create such unique garments. Simply wonderful...
Thankies 😀😀
You look so beautiful in your new blouse, Karina 🌸
I’m so slow at cutting out, cos I love prints, & pattern placement makes an enormous difference. I loved seeing how you cut this out. So thoughtfully done, & it really shows. Your buttons play the perfect supporting role!
Thankyou again for sharing your hints and your wonderful creativity! 🤗✨
I think pattern placement is huge. It takes ages. Especially with flowers not ending up on the bust….
Yes, that’s right! 😄🌸🌼
Great instructions
It’s so pretty l love it 😍
Beautiful, romantic blouse that is so perfect for you. Great job!
Another beautiful garment Karina and thanks for all the explanations on how to sew this Chelsea collar !
What a lovely blouse - very smart cutting/use of pattern, love your fabric to. I have a simular pattern I could try, with your video on hand, I think it will be easy. Watched that fba-video again as well. Thanks for sharing :-)
I made this blouse today, I just have the hem and buttonholes and buttons to finish. Sadly, I hadn't seen this video first. However, it's fine, it's a good fit, and I sewed slowly and tried to be really precise. I changed the sleeves as I chose the short sleeve version and they were too long, only marginally above the elbow, and far too wide. So, I chopped off 2.5" and gathered them, then added a narrow, self-made, bias binding. I am happy with the result. Your blouse is superb. I never find border prints here in the UK!
Enjoying this video while resting in bed with covid .Hope you and family are all doing well.
I hope you are feeling better soon. Take good care of yourself!
@@onlyyours725 thank you so much!
Oh my! I hope you feel
Better soon!
@@LiftingPinsandNeedles thank you!!
Betty, get better. Take care, Deb
My dad used to say, you need a safety chain on that shirt! I used to roll my eyes at him, ☺️
I love how you changed thread colour to match better. And your pattern placement was absolutely perfect, that stripe under the buttons is spot on! I love pattern matching, it takes ages, but its fun.
You did such a beautiful job on the blouse.
Beautiful blouse! I too like to take my time when cutting out fabric. Sometimes it does take hours to figure out exactly the way you want it to look. That is a fun part for me. I enjoy that process. Thanks for the tip on interfacing the entire collar facing.
It’s worth the extra time for sure and there’s no rush 😀
Just lovely! I’ve been sewing knits and I have a couple of tees to make, then I’ll be ready for some woven and this blouse in a blue, black and cream paisley is what I’m going to make. I also really like the white example they show on the website and if this first one I make turns out, I want to make a similar white one in a lighter weight for summer.
Thank you so much Karina! I’m very motivated!
White would be lovely and the fabric they used is super pretty :)
Another lovely make! I really like this top with the unique fabric. The fabric is a great choice for this style.
Thank you 😀😀
Beautiful blouse and beautiful workmanship! Thanks for sharing. I am so proud to be an Orchid supporter.
It is such a pretty blouse, and you look so pretty in it. I loved learning the techniques you showed us. One of these days I will get up my courage to make a garment with buttons.
Go for it! The trick is to practice them on the same fabric you are working with. I never skip the practice buttonhole for my makes.
Stunning fabric/shirt. Looks amazing on you! I’d love you to show us how you cut out a print like that.
I’ll try to film that at some point. Because I film the sewing, I see the cutting part as sort of my personal time.
Love the blouse. It looks so nice on you. Personally I think the length is perfect. Thank you for the video.

I love this blouse. I learned to make button holes by hand bc my machine didn't make button holes. My machine does so I am building confidence. Thank you.
Stunning blouse really suits you, fabulous use of a border print. Have the pattern, want to make this one now!
You’ll love it :)
I really appreciate that you dress so modestly. Too many women show far too much skin, thinking they look good. They don't, just cheap. You always look lovely but you do have one bad habit, Karina. You get your fingers far too close to the blade of your rotary cutter. I always hold my breath and hope the cutter does not slip, which can happen to even someone as experienced as you are. This blouse is beautiful. Thank you for this delightful tutorial.
I know about the blade situation 😬😬. So far no accidents in over 30 years but yes, I have to be careful 😀
Your blouse is just beautiful! Talented lady
love this pattern and the collar. I haven't made it yet, but thanks for sharing your makes, Karina
Thank you so much for watching 😀
This blouse looks fantastic on you. So pretty!
Such a great blouse. I love the collar and mixing the prints of your fabric really shows each detail. Thanks for sharing!
I love that make, the color is awesome and your fit is perfect. Thank you for the video. It has so many tips. Now I want to make a short sleeved Patina.
Your finished blouse is stunning and your sewing is perfection! Really enjoyed watching how careful you are with every piece - it really shows in the finished garment. Thank you for sharing this - I’m off to buy the Patina blouse now! 😀
Such a beautiful creation you’ve made, it looks amazing on you. You are very talented Karina 💖
Stunning blouse! Love it so much!
It’s a gorgeous blouse. I have this pattern ready to cut out . I love yours
I’d love to make it again with short sleeves 😃
This top is perfection…the execution, fabric and pattern placement. I was just looking at the Sorbetto hacks, as well as your green/yellow collection that you did before leaving Bolivia (perfection there too) Learning more than just sewing :-)
Your blouse turned out really nice!
Love the collar! I got to have that pattern! Looks very flattering on you!
Karina, your Patina blouse is beautiful. I am going to be making the same pattern, but I need to lengthen my long sleeve. I will need to lengthen it by 1 1/2 inches according to the finished measurements, but wonder if and how much extra I would have to add to allow for the sleeve to billow? I really enjoy your videos and think you are a wonderful teacher!
Beautiful blouse! The collar really suits you too. I am wondering how heavy the interfacing was and was it a washable/dryable interfacing or does it need to be dry cleaned? There are so many weights when it comes to interfacing, but patterns rarely explain what weight of interfacing to use. I get tired of trial and error with interfacing weights. Thanks so much.
I’m not much help when it comes to interfacing because I don’t have any options here. I buy lightweight interfacing that can be washed, it’s unbranded…. It does work well for my needs. I don’t have any heavier one than this. The other type I use it stretch tricot interfacing …. But I don’t use that for wovens.
Beautifully done as always. I know you normally do your Fba just wondering what your thoughts on Nancy Zieman pivot and slide technique
I’m not a fan of the pivot and slide because it also adds extra ease at the upper chest area and that is an area I would like to keep as per the original fit. I’d rather do the traditional method that only adds the extra at the height of the bust and not above it. I know the pivot and slide works well for a lot of people , but it is not my preference.
I was just looking at the video regarding this technique. Thanks for commenting Karina and Catherine, glad you asked. A lady did this on her Ogden cami. I thought the traditional way of doing the FBA looked better. Pivot and slide is easier. She went with easy.
So beautiful. By chance do you have any suggestion as to where to get that blue animal print in denim. I have been looking all over for it. Thank you for the video. You are an amazing sewist.
This is actually not denim. It’s rayon crepe. I buy all my fabrics in Brazil so I never have fabric links to share.
Yes I know it’s not denim. But I wanted to make a jean jacket with a blue animal print and that pattern you used on your blouse is exactly what I’m looking for but in denim. Sorry I didn’t clarify myself very well. Thank you for your response. I love your channel.
I do love your blouse! So many blouse patterns say to interface the undercollar. How do you determine when to interface the upper fabric or the lower fabric of the pattern piece? That part has always been a mystery to me. Thanks for your video. It’s so helpful!
I prefer to interface the visible collar because it will look crisp and smooth. You’ll find instructions that say to do this, or not. I know what I like so I interfaced the upper collar :)
The blouse is pure perfection. What pant pattern are you wearing? Thanks
They are my Mountain View pull-up jeans from Itch to Stitch :)
@@LiftingPinsandNeedles Great, I've got that pattern.. Thanks.
I don't mean to sound rude, and if so I apologize, but what is your accent? I love hearing you speak!
It was originally an Australian accent but then it got mixed when I lived in the USA and New Zealand. It’s a hybrid 😀
It is an original like you are.
I wish i could polyesters and synthetics without skin reaction as they look so floaty.
This is not polyester. It’s rayon and it’s a fabric that is very soft on the skin.
