Buy the Fleur Dress and Blouse sewing pattern from Fabric Godmother. This pretty and versatile pattern has a loose fit, bias finished neckline, and optional sleeves. The playful bow ties and gathered peplum or skirt add an element of fun, while a secret placket stops you showing more than you might want to between the bows! Made in a lightweight cotton or linen this is the perfect summer dress or blouse. You can also use a heavier weight fabric and wear the sleeveless version as a pinafore dress in cooler weather.

Suggested fabrics: Fabrics with a bit of body such as cotton poplin, linen and lightweight denim will give this garment the structure needed to show off the bows and peplum. For a fancy version, use a sparkly brocade. Or use a denim or cord to make a winter version.
