Ikatee Lena blouse/dress

Ikatee's Lena Mum pattern can be sewn as a blouse or a long dress. With a loose fit, the dress has optional ruffles, and shoulder straps that can be tied at the back. Optional pockets. 

This is an easy pattern. You will learn how to assemble gathered panels, assemble an elasticated channel and assemble pockets in side seams.
