This took me forever!! The top is fully lined and has sewn in interfacing. The pattern did not require a lining but I thought it best for my taste. I still have to put hook and eyes on the skirt and top but I have to move right along to the next variation.
This would look a little better if I had the hook and eyes attached. When I changed the pattern to a top I didn't consider that I would need a separating zipper in order to get into the blouse. Ouch!!! I opened up the darts a little rather take the zipper out . Its ok for me but if I made this for someone else I would use buttons like I did in the top you see below. That's a bit of a pain because you need someone to button you up!!!
In this top I added the peplum from B6582 to the top instead. The skirt is the same as above w/o the peplum of course. I have sewn a few other pieces for the show but they are not complete. If I don't get pics before the show I will certainly post pics of the actual show. It's just a small tea party show like last year but I still need to get a lot of sewing done in this small space of time.!!
Happy Sewing and Have a Blessed Day!!
That is beautiful .. love how you used fabric from the top and incorporated it into the skirt.
