And here is the halter top with the shorts...
The fourth and final piece I'll be making is a coordinating skirt in a solid; something that will be very easy to incorporate into my existing wardrobe. The fabric I'm using is a purplish-navy linen/rayon blend that matches very nicely with the blue stripe in the seersucker. I'll be using New York 1292 for the skirt as well, but I'm not going to add the triangular appliquéd pieces on the sides as I do want to maintain a simpler, cleaner line. Originally I was thinking of using a 1970s skirt pattern that I have. It's very similar in style, A-line and with buttons down the front, but it's a slimmer skirt, and I think that this slightly fuller A-line will work better with the other playsuit pieces.
And just for good measure, here's my little helper. He just turned one a few weeks ago. I can't believe how big he's getting! (He hates when I try and wipe his face, which is why it's covered in blueberry oatmeal).
Have a great week!
Looks great! I especially love the shorts. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Stephanie! My iron died on me so I haven't been able to finish the skirt yet, but hopefully it won't take too much longer.
DeleteOh, I love your playsuit!! The fabric is awesome! And: cute little helper!

DeleteMe parece todo absolutamente precioso!! La combinación de las pequeñas rayas son todo un acierto, seguro que lo usarás mucho este verano... y tu pequeño ayudante es una dulzura, me encanta esa carita traviesa!!
