Zoe
No major concerns with pattern, came together nicely. Made top version with sleeves for a friend, no obvious fit concerns, she is very straight sized/small bust. Seam allowances vary between seams so took a bit of concentration to get them right. I like that the sleeve patterns are interchangeable between several patterns but haven't tested this feature. It seemed to be fairly long in the torso which is not a problem for my make but shorter people might need to shorten the length for a good fit

Zoe - Pretty summer blouse
I have just made the Zoe blouse in a Liberty Tana Lawn and I'm really pleased with it, will definitely make again. It was a very satisfying make, learning new finishing techniques. I found the English instructions fairly brief but they were accompanied by the tutorial video and extra tutorials on YouTube e.g. using bias binding, which were extremely helpful. I wasn't able to find English subtitles for the Zoe tutorial video but along with the English instructions, I got there. I used the Atelier Scammit simplified method to make and attach the bias binding around the neckline, for me it was a game changer and in future this will be the method I use. I felt the "V" neck was a little low for me, so I raised it by about 3cm and reduced the length of the blouse by 7cm. I look forward to my next Atelier Scammit pattern and learning more techniques.
