I have written my first guest blog post for Love Notions and I've chosen to discuss precautions that are needed to be able to tackle the most wonderful fabric ever: Chiffon. I have made three Rhapsody blouses with chiffon fabric and I am sharing all the tips on the blog and showing them here on the channel.

Made gathers at the back instead of the inverted box pleat to protect the integrity of the fabric.

My specifics:
* For reference, 41-34-44 at 5ft 8"
* Size 12 blended to 14 at the hips
* Lowered by 1" the bust dart
* Added Fish eye darts at the back. This reduced the waist circumference by 6cm (2.5") giving definition and shaping at the back.
* Lowered front neckline by 1"
* Polyester sheer fabric, unknown content. Woven.
* I used 112cm to make this top. The requirement was 170cm.
I'm happy with the result and will be using this pattern again to create a dress and other versions!
DISCLAIMER: I don't have a fabric sponsor. I produce sewing content independently from pattern brands and share my unique way of sewing with you, with my own investment of time and resources. I am not providing a paid service to pattern brands nor intend to replace instructions found in patterns with my content. I don’t necessarily follow instructions. My opinions are honest, especially around fit and sewing techniques.
