Floral Blues

Hi loves, well as promised I'm back today!!! and I believe this is the first time I've posted a make back to back huuuummm.  Okay, this set is one of my favorites, the pants are are wide, airy and flowy, and had I bought them off rack I would have had to make adjustments in the legs and given them a hem too which, is one of the reasons I like making my own clothes for my petite frame.  The top has a gathered neckline with a casing for feeding a strap through to secure it by tying it into a bow ( which I preferred to wear in the front ).  This set was fairly easy to make and I believe it is beginner friendly. I used Simplicity pattern  number 1112 view A for top and view C for pants.  Thanks for stopping by viewers and remember...you too can make it if you try, just DIY! Blessing to all.

The Chambray Top and Pant

Hi loves, Yes! I know it has been awhile since I last posted anything and that is due to a number of things happening in my corner of life and household lately.  With career and hour changes and the the loss of both our mothers ( the hubby's and mine ) within the space of eight months, that has been the most difficult of all things to bounce back from to say the least....but we are pressing on forward one day at a time.  We were caregivers to our moms and even though we're quite aware of the fact they are in a better place than we could have ever provided for them, we miss them very much. So please lift us up in your prayers and thanks in advance. The May-me-makes that I'm wearing here were sewn with two different pattern brands.  For the top I used  McCall 7659 view A and for the pants I used Simplicity 8605 View A,E.  I purchase the Chambray fabric ( which has a very soft feel ) for top and pants from Joann's Fabrics.  The top's pattern is pretty advance
