don’t mind me…
[ click for a larger view. ]
Sailor Husband has the day off (hurrah!), so I’m taking a bit of a break from blogging today so we can do spend some time together! I also wanted to show you a sneak peek at the 1940s sequined blouse I mentioned last week. It still needs snaps for the side placket closure (somehow I managed to completely run out of snaps in my stash!), but it’s 95% complete. Hopefully more on that in a couple days…
Have a lovely Monday, friends!

Your blouse looks lovely! Can’t wait to see the completed project (even though it’s practically done!)!

I like the sequin detailing. Done by hand as usual, I would guess?

Wonderful blouse! I love the practicality of separetes, it’s so much easier to make them work for me. Dresses are great, but for everyday wear I prefer things I can combine, like a fancy blouse with a simpler skirt. I bet that blouse will look great with the favorite skirt you showed us a while ago!
Have a great day with your man! =)
Cheers! -

Love it! Just enough shiny to catch the eye without going full showgirl.
What fabric did you use? -
