Inspired by country queen Patsy Cline, this is the most versatile blouse pattern you’ll ever find. Whether your style is more cowgirl, casual, or classic vintage, the Patsy Blouse has something for everyone. Make a sweet, office appropriate collared blouse, a showstopping balloon sleeved top perfect for first dates, or go all out in gabardine and fringe for the ultimate Western number. We know you’re all about options, so we’ve got ‘em: pick from five different sleeve looks, two collars, as well as yoke and pocket choices. The Patsy is sure to fill every gap in your wardrobe, from dressy and put together to over-the-top fun: pair it with the Marilyn Jeans for a sporty, casual look, or opt for the Stanwyck Skirt for a polished fit.
