Not exactly April colors — I know. Βut this fabric combo has been through quite a journey before becoming this blouse.
It actually started as a dress I didn’t like at all. I took it apart, got frustrated, and somehow, from 3 meters of fabric, I barely managed to create this piece.
I’ve always had a soft spot for mixed fabrics and asymmetric silhouettes, and pattern 113 from
@burda_style 11/2025 (slightly modified) brought both elements together just the way I wanted.
Finished yesterday and photographed at the Athens flea market — and somehow, that’s where the colors finally made perfect sense.
This is my first entry for the #sewaprilblouse26 hosted by
@cloth_edit and
@sewn_on_the_tyne and I promise the next one will be fully spring-inspired.
