Vogue 8815 Cotton/polyester blend fabric |
Sassy Librarian Blouse [sorry the photo didn't show up, My ink was just about out when I photocopied this class material] Cotton fabric.. teal blue with rose colored flowers. |
Colette Violet [My 4th one..I love it] linen fabric light blue with darker blue designs |
White on white stripe linen WIP--- Colette Violet.. I actually started this blouse , when the pattern first came out.. I had lost some weight after cutting it out , and it no longer fit. So I tossed it aside. Since that time, I have lost some more weight, but decided, this was the perfect time, to redo this beautiful fabric, in the redo pile.. I took a break , last night and resized it, and sewed a little on it.. [cheating Judy, Sew along is not until Sunday!!! OOOPS!] As I told you here: http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=6755312589615767449#editor/target=post;postID=8271824357969141658 I am busy working on 4 grandaughters , Easter dresses, so I am not sure , how many blouses, I will actually get done, during this 2 week sew along.. But , I will commit to one, and we will see ?? However... these are on my sewing table for spring and summer sewing...Along ,with several new dress patterns. and of course t-shirts [a brand new world for me..sewing with knits.. thank you Stacie.] http://www.staciethinksshecan.com/ NOTE: Do you know what I noticed? I love red, you all know that... And every time , I pick out fabric..it is red or has red in it? Do you see all this blue? hummm... not like me at all.. I must be going through a blue phase.lol |

DeleteSo. I will start on the blouse challenge..Probably with Easter holidays being in there.. I will only do one blouse for the challenge.
Love your choices of prints on your fabric!
ReplyDeleteI especially like the first one cotton/polyester blend. I was wondering, is that a good fabric choice for summer? I get so hot, and I would like to sew a few tops for summer can you recommend fabric for hot weather?
Even some of the 100% cotton fabric is to hot to wear.
Thanks for any tips!
Irene
Happy Easter!
