Are there any blouse patterns out there suitable for broderie anglaise? I have 2m and would like a top/blouse in it. I’m a size 14-16 and, totally inspired by Hayley’s recent tummy friendly video, I’m wondering if the TATB Nell peplum blouse would work in broderie anglaise? Any ideas?

This is a lovely pattern and I see why it would look good in broderie anglaise. However, I want to sound a word of caution. In my experience, the stitching on the fabric means that it doesn't always drape or gather well, and needs a simple pattern.
I'd suggest a few gathering stitches on the fabric and hang it on your model or over a chair to see how it seems, before you cut it.
Hope it does work well for you!

Thank you, that’s a very good idea and I might give that a try.

Ooh that would be beautiful, however I agree with AnnieRose I don’t think it will gather well. There is an option to make the blouse without the peplum which would be really nice and because it isn’t fitted it would drape from your bust.

Thanks Hayley. I think I’ll try gathering a bit and see how it behaves, as AnnieRose suggested.
