flower power

While I was in Italy during the month of June, I found this beautiful piece of heavy silk, and even though Im not big on bold prints normally, I was totally taken by this one.
Even more taken when the sales attendant told me that because it was the last piece, it was 10 Euros!

What do you think? 

I hope I can still pull off something this bold!

Im been thinking what to do with it, and although I know that a dress should probably be the best and easier option, I almost NEVER wear dresses nor skirts.
So... Im trying to make a pattern and sew a pair of wide leg pants...
oh, boy this will be scary!
I havent draw a pattern forever...

Lets see how this will end... wish me luck!
