Sewing an Armistice Blouse

I love 1910’s fashion, and am excited to start adding pieces from that decade into my historybounding wardrobe - beginning with this c. 1918 Armistice Blouse! Follow along with me as I wrangle some uncooperative facings, and learn a lot about blouse construction in the process. Thank you all for watching!
The pattern I used was the 210 Armistice Blouse by Folkwear, available here: www.folkwear.com/products/210....

OMG, can't thank you enough for this. As far as I can find, this is the only sewalong for this challenging blouse to sew. The cuffs are totally confusing to me. This is FANTASTIC!!!!

Glad I could help!

That silhouette is absolutely gorgeous and paired with that subtle fabric 🤩.
I’m saving the pattern to my list of “want to make” patterns.

[@mountainfiber809]

Thank you! That sounds lovely!!

1910' blouses weren't in my wish list until now. It's not ideal for the winter, so I have a few mounths to get the pattern.

[@mountainfiber809]

Yeah, definitely not the warmest blouse, but I hope you enjoy the process of making one later!

I’m having that exact same problem with my collar bunching up in the back

[@mountainfiber809]

I think it's an issue with the shape of the collar & neckline, but honestly don't know enough about collar drafting to fix it (yet)

[@nickiel577]

@@mountainfiber809 definitely, if I had a dress form I would just try draping it myself
