I made a couple of tops and a jacket. First up, I finally made the top and jacket from Simplicity 3800, both pieces are made out of a black knit. I think that Erica B. used this same pattern a while back. I got the idea to make the top and jacket from her, because the ones she made came out so cute. This pattern is part of the Threads collection, but I think that it is actually out of print now. However I always say better late than never. I wonder if it would be possible to sew all of the the patterns that I have at least once before they go out of print. Hmmmm......I don't think so!! I have way too many patterns to even attempt to try such a feat.
The second top I made is New Look 6753 View C. I bought this fabric back in March I think during PR weekend and since I had so much left over I plan to make a dress out of it also at some point. This upcoming 4th of July weekend I am planning on making a black and white skirt and a solid black skirt to go with these tops and maybe a few other things if I have time.

Very pretty tops.
Your tops are very pretty! Can't wait to see the coordinating skirts!
Thanks Lori and Caroyln, I hope to finish my skirts by the end of this weekend, but we shall see.
Lovely tops! Good work!
Cute pieces. I really like the relaxed look of the jacket.
Thanks Tany and Cennetta,
For me they are all just simple things to throw on when I am in a hurry.
