he Easter holiday weekend!I've finally found the time to post a few pictures of my last two projects. The top from Simplicity 4412 has six views for various jacket styles. For this version I used view D that has tie ends for the collar. Simple princess seams, four-button closure and the sleeves are long of course and I just machine stithced the hem. The skirt is Simplicity 5914 also has several versions and lengths. View A was the choice from this pattern. I wanted a long skirt. The pattern has two main pieces for front & back, side front
and back, plus the facings. This skirt has a side zipper 
inserted. The fabric is from Fabric Mart, purchased several months ago. I will probably make this skirt again in a short version.And finally, here is a picture of me wearing the McCalls 5597 
(my husband peeking over my shoulder). Shhh! I think I may have gained a pound or two since this suit was complete! OH NO!! Well, I will have to take care of that before I wear it again!

You look fantastic in that coral color! Love the tie collar on the white jacket.
Nice suit, I'm loving the pink suit. You look beautiful in it. Your white suit is nice too. You've been busy.

Oh Jackie, that was beautiful on you!
Two beautiful suits.
Great color on you, very stylish!
Oh...that suit looks gorgeous on you!!! That's the pic I've been waiting for! And the ties on the jacket, I was wondering how that would look on a real garment as opposed to the pattern drawing. VERY nice!
Stunning!! You did a wonderful job!
