Pattern Information
Sizes: UK 4 - 28
Silmu is a stylish sewing pattern duo that includes a loose-fitting shirt and a midi-length shirt dress. Both variations feature a distinctive overlapping collar. The shirt variation also includes breast pockets, a back pleat, long sleeves with cuffs, and an uneven hem with side slits. The waist pleats of the dress variation make it loose at the top, while the skirt is lightly fitted. The dress also has pleated half sleeves and a tie closure at the back.
Named Clothing have sew-along series for each step of sewing this pattern on their website, you can find the link here. We have a few extra hints and tips for you below to help you get an extra luxurious finish.
One of the most beautiful things about sewing a shirt are the clean finishing techniques that can be used on the inside. With most seams already tucked inside plackets, collar stands and yokes, there are only a few raw edges left. We love to finish these edges with French seams for the most luxurious finish to your garment.

Designed by Rachel Parker for Lamazi Fabrics, Painted Foliage reimagined in teal and magenta colours features an abstract design of foliage in beautiful deep shades. Inspired by the idea of a rainbow canopy of leaves, Rachel painted the affect of dappled sunlight passing through the foliage and tried to capture summer in this fabric.
