My Posies Monday


I don't know about you, but I can only stitch (any needlework or knitting) for so long and then I need a break.  So I will have a couple of projects going-right now I'm smocking the little top I've shown you, knitting a red baby sweater and just finishing a top for one of my posies.  Because I have several things going I don't know if I can fill a blog space with just sewing for my etsy shop.  Since I still sew for my girls (not always clothes),  I thought it would be a nice feature to share some of the projects I'm working on for them, so Mondays will be My Posies Mondays.

This first project is a cute summer top that can be worn with jeans.  I used quilters fabric that we found at our local JoAnn's.

So here are my supplies.  I'm making view A-the black and white top.



Overall the top was easy to make...I put it together in an afternoon.  The only alterations I made was to the bottom band and the tie- both of which I shortened.

End result...
