February blouse

Project Sew It’s theme this month prompted me to go through the pattern pile & fabric stash mountain again! I haven’t made a lot of blouses even though I found numerous patterns that I’ve bought over the years 

With spring, hopefully, just around the corner i decided to go for something loose that could dress up a pair of jeans.  

Not sure what the fabric is but it has a reasonable weight to it so it hangs well & doesn’t crease. 

I like the simple lines of this top and as I used a heavily patterned fabric I chose view D but omitted the pocket and collar. 

With a fold over facing on front edge & bias facing for armholes the blouse was easily made in an afternoon. For speed I also just overlooked then turned the hem but when I make again I think it would be better to do a rolled hem. 

Just can’t wait for the current cold spell to pass to get out in the sunshine in this.

 In the meantime I have found at least 3 more fabrics that I could make some more with😃
