1940s Wartime A-Line Skirt & Two Blouses Sewing Pattern

Price range: £10.49 through £19.99

A practical wartime sewing pattern designed with clothing coupon saving in mind, featuring an A-line skirt and two different blouse styles.

The simple two-piece A-line skirt has no waistband. The long-sleeved blouse has distinctive scalloped front edges and a matching scalloped collar, while the short-sleeved version has a rever collar.

The buttons are decorative, so there are no buttonholes to make. The blouses fasten discreetly with press studs or hooks and eyes.

Size: Bust 36 in – Hip 40 in

Suggested fabrics:
No fabrics were specified with the pattern, which is not unusual for wartime designs. Suitable choices could include suiting, linen or tweed for the skirt, with viscose, cotton or similar lightweight fabrics for the blouses.

The pattern includes period step-by-step instructions, together with a helpful sewing guide.
