Flower Blouse

The Pattern:

All good things come at least three times... Yeah I am too lazy to trace new patterns - so reused the same pattern as for the Wallpaper Dress und Psycho wave blouse... The good thing about reusing patterns is that you get better and better in sewing them. You kind of learn from your mistakes... Mostly. I did a better collar indeed, but the extremely curved hem got wonky. What I changed is that I omitted the waist elastic and used pleats instead. The pattern had also too wide shoulders for me.


The Fabric:


Here is the post about it, when I purchased it.


The Blouse:


I have a feeling it got a bit of a Dynasty or Dallas style to it. And I somehow love it... I like the contuinity of the print that cannot be distorted through the pattern.






Funny Backstage Fact:

I somehow look stoned it this pictures - there is an easy explaination about it. I put the camera on the TV. And on the the TV was running a crime serie and I was watching it while I was making the photos. That is maybe a good visual about the effect of watching on humans...
