This edition of Free Pattern Friday features a free pattern for a square-neckline blouse perfect for warmer weather.

Pauline Alice shares a top pattern featuring a relaxed fit, a neckline facing, and a curved hem.

This blouse pattern is perfect for light to medium-weight fabrics, including cotton poplin, linen, and viscose.

Just a heads-up—some of the links in this blog post are affiliate links, which means I may earn a small commission (at no extra cost to you) if you make a purchase through them. These commissions help support my work so I can continue bringing you free sewing tutorials, tips, and inspiration.

 Thank you for being part of this creative journey.

Happy sewing! ✨

Why I love This Pick

I haven’t made this pattern yet, but I can totally imagine it in my closet. While puffed sleeves aren’t usually a style in my closet, I think I would measure the elastic a bit larger than just around my bicep for a looser fit. I love that it’s a boxy top, allowing it to be worn on many different occasions.
