 Hi,  Please can you advise how much ease to add to my basic bodice block pattern to turn it into a semi fitted shirt?

 

Many thanks

Liz

Re: Adding ease for a blouse

Dear Liz,

You can add about 4 cm in total to the side seams, to make the bodice block pattern into a semi fitted one. Make sure to have wider seam allowances as well, incase you want to make it larger when you do the fitting. 

Hope this helps.

 

Happy sewing,

Nehzat
