looking for a chiffon tank pattern
missjulie Advanced Beginner MA USA Member since 3/28/09 Posts: 21	Login to reply to this post Like this post Date: 2/21/13 8:47 AM I just got some chiffon polka dot fabric. I want to make a blouse sort of like this Phillip Lim tank. Anyone ever seen a similar pattern? Even vaguely similar?

I have an older similar pattern but I don't even see it in the OOP section...it's this one. The first one is sized for a stretch but you could make it work with some tweaking. -- Edited on 2/21/13 11:31 PM --

Also, for the ruffles, use a "flounce" not a gathered ruffle. Something like this: That when sewn on look more like this: (Pics are taken from a tutorial for a kids dress, and the ruffles are more vertical, but the idea is the same.) If you don't have a tank pattern (or a RTW woven tank that fits you to trace), KS3848 and KS2761 both look like good starting points. But neither have any reviews. I suppose there's always the Sorbetto, but that more of a sleeveless top than a tank.
