Default A challenge from my husband

Yesterday my husband asked me what I had planned for my day. I told him I was going to find some fabric from my stash and make a blouse. While I was in the other room raiding my closet stash, he pick out 3 fabrics out of my sewing room stash.

His challenge was to take the 3 fabrics and use all three in a pattern of my choice.

Here is what I came up with.....

1st photo the pattern
2nd photo the fabric (whats left of it)
3rd the finished product......a summer blouse
Sorry the last photo is sideways, my desktop shows it upright.

He did a good job of coordinating - top looks cute and comfortable - and you are a very fast sewer!

The top is so pretty, and great for summer. I have that same pattern, but haven't used it yet.
