How to make a kaftan Blouse 2


Creating a Simple Kaftan or Butterfly 🦋 top is an easy summer project that pairs well with shorts or jeans. As demonstrated in the initial video, cutting the top requires no pattern piece, just your bust measurements.


see how I make the bias binding below, the bias is used to neaten the raw edges of the neckline.

Make a Simple Kaftan Blouse with me 1

First things first you will need a few things to start this simple project 

1. 2  yards or metres of any cotton fabric it's summer and cotton keeps you cool.

2. Scissors I like to use soft touch ergonomic Fiskars, I cut a lot so I use this very comfortable pair 





3. French Curve, tape measure and a simple ruler. In the next video, I will be threading a machine and showing you how to sew the garment.

4. You will need a sewing machine, click on the machine to see where to get it.
