Lace Long Sleeve Flowy Blouse
I'm finally back to writing on this blog after being busy for two months, I still sew some small items and mend a few clothes but haven't sewn new clothes. Until two days before Valentine's arrived, I felt like I had to sew a new blouse to wear to dinner. The blouse had to be in the shade of pink, so I checked my stash and found 2 yards of lace fabric in fuchsia that I don't remember when I bought it.

Here is the pattern that I drafted, And after the pattern was done, I cut the fabric as usual. The sewing process was fun and turned out to be easier than I imagined. I sewed the neckline front and back yokes and then attached them to the gathered bodices as shown below. After that, I sewed the shoulder lines togeth
Beautiful projects Hana! The red cowl top is a great color on you and you know I love a pretty dress...and yours is a pretty one!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your sweet comment, Margo! My jersey cowl top is in strong pink color, but it look red in the picture:)
DeleteI love your version of the dress - I have plans to make the top and extend to dress for my DD.
ReplyDeleteThank you, jacquianne! I am looking forward to see your top and dress for your DD.
DeleteAll such pretty little garments again- I like them all, all quite different moods. The dress length for the burda tie top looks lovely - the belt is a good idea or it would be a big tent. I am glad your little boy is better.

ReplyDeleteHi Hana, as usual they're all lovely. The burda top looks like a wardrobe staple for the tropics (I need to download it). And I agree, the pink (looks red in the pics), top is a great colour for you.
