In the mood for Mabel? You're in the right place! It's time for your dose of Mabel blouse and dress sewing inspiration.
The Mabel sewing pattern is ideal for many fabrics you may well already have in your stash. We recommend lightweight woven fabrics that gather easily. Cotton-based materials such as lawn, poplin, voile and seersucker will give a casual daytime vibe, or you could go with something like a viscose (rayon) or crêpe for a softer silhouette and silkier look for the office or a party.
Gingham & Checks
Fabric: Yarn Dyed Gingham Cotton - Blue & Yellow
If you're new to shirring, make your life easier with a fabric with directional lines like ginghams and checks. We love this combo so much, we made our Mabel blouse sample out of gingham too!
