About this pattern

If structured ruffles are what your me-made wardrobe is missing, then you’ll love this pattern from our designer Amanda Walker. Made from a cotton muslin – but equally stylish in linens, too – this classic top is a year-round winner, offering the potential to master setting-in sleeves and sewing curved seams.

  • Fabric, 2m (130cm)
  • Button

Essentials

    Match the outer edges of the sleeve ruffles together, then pin and sew with a 5mm seam allowance. Turn the ruffles to the right side, tease out the seam edges and press flat. Make two rows of gathering stitches across the centre of the ruffles, as indicated on the pattern. Pull up to gather, then position the ruffles into the armholes, matching the ends to the positions marked on the armholes. Pin and secure in place.
