I had a blouse that was large enough to fit myself and a fairly large friend. I cut it up long ago with the intention of making something with it, but I was waiting for it to declare itself. I never work on a piece of fabric, a blank canvas, or an empty notebook without first waiting for it to declare itself. I know that the drawing is meant to be something unique just as I know the piece of paper is meant to be part of a particular written work.
In the time between my cutting the fabric and it's declaration I moved to a different apartment. Somewhere between there and here I lost the sleeves and a significant amount of the blouse. As a result, the fabric turned out to whisper to me rather than make a grand declaration, LOL.
In the end, it worked out. I have a decent top to wear for summer. I just miss those sleeves!
If you sew often, or even if you're just beginning, you really should check out the links on the left hand side of my post.
