The skirt was made from a Simplicity pattern. I don't have the number handy but it almost got tossed. I decided to keep it because I can wear it for work on those days when I don't know what to wear, LOL!Butterick 5356 was the one I had to finish on Sunday evening. Well didn't have to, just wanted it done so I didn't have anything (else) unfinished for the upcoming week.
I made View D, a loose-fitting pullover with 
gathers in the front and stitched hems all around. I made my own bias trim for the neckline from the leftover fabric. Can't beat that. Saved time & money and it matches exactly everytime.Vogue 7883 has been cut out for awhile. A super easy pullover top with shaped hem and long sleeves. 
I've made quite a few tops in the past two weekends. It was something I needed to do in order to give myself more options. I will probably wear a lot of jean bottoms but also I plan to make a few skirts and capri pants to go with these tops and what I already have in my wardrobe for even more choices. Happy Sewing!

I made vogue 7883 last summer. Yours is much cuter than mine!! I decided I look awful in boat necks. I think I wore it once . Oh well, a lesson learned.
I was blog surfing this morning, and found your great blog, so glad I did, I'm staying. ;)
Have a super day!

I love your bright springy colors! The skirt is awesome!
Cute summer tops!
I like that Vogue pattern! I'm going to have to look for that one.
You had a busy weekend! I like everything you made, especially the blue and white top.
I have both of the patterns brewing on my inspiration bulletin board! You did a great job - as always!
You've certainly taken the most out of your weekend! All the garments look great and make great additions to your summer wardrobe!
Nice tops!
