Favorite sewing: my summer blouse in Indian handmade fabric block print

Last summer, I got my hands on this green Indian block print craft fabric that I bought at the Cap Ferret market (at Namaste Fabric), and guess what? I transformed it into the most comfortable and lightweight summer blouse ever. It’s like wearing a cloud of freshness on my skin, especially in the heat!

Lovely Indian block print fabrics, available in a range of colors and embellished with captivating bohemian patterns.

The width is 115 cm. I bought 1.5 meters of fabric to make a little top.

Let’s dive deeper into pattern selection. My choice fell on the “Peach Blouse” model offered by Craftine.

This pattern offers a multitude of creative possibilities, making each piece a unique and personalized project. You can also sew this blouse with viscose, linen, cotton gauze, embroidered cotton, etc. The instruction guide included in the pattern is clear and detailed, providing a valuable roadmap through each step of the process. After a few hours with my sewing machine, here is my summer blouse!

The Pêche Craftine blouse features clean lines and a feminine cut, perfect for showcasing the subtle details of my Indian block print fabric.

The fabric is feather light, with a delicate feel against the skin. Plus, the satisfaction of wearing something I created with my own hands! Indian patterns add a bohemian touch to my summer days. It has become my must-have to stay stylish and comfortable.
