Pattern printed of the blouse and dress set Cho by Laeti and Léa from size 34 to 50

Cho is a pattern that follows the trend of large flat collars and is distinguished by its origami-fold sleeves with cuffs. It is available from size 34 to 50 and designed for a height of 165 cm.
Several options available :

• short or long sleeves
• rounded neckline at the front or a rounded neckline at the back (bra compatible)
• with or without collar
  
• blouse version, trapeze dress or peplum dress

You can now make a buttoned version thanks to the included tutorial.

For neat finishes, the neckline is finished with a folded bias tape (unlined version) and the seams of the sleeves and bodice are made using the English seam technique.

Sewing level

Advanced beginner to intermediate depending on the options chosen. The technical points are applying the neckline bias tape and making the origami folds on the sleeves.
