Lazy Days

I decided instead to show you a few things that I have prepared for Back-to-School. This cute LAZY DAY top is soooooo pretty. I just love these fabrics from Riley Blake, and believe it or not I used an old pattern that for some reason I forgot existed. It is called Simply Sweet Tops and Dresses by the Scientific Seamstress. The pattern was easy to follow and very simple to put together. Many of the patterns I use come from the Scientific Seamstress, so I trust her measurements. I added a few things here and there to make this top even better. I added the side seam sash, since the top may need some tightening if the child wears it without a t-shirt. I also added a binding at the bottom hem instead of a ruffle. I wanted the top to be a bit shorter. The flutter sleeves are part of the pattern, and my goodness they are soooo adorable. I will try and get Olivia to model tomorrow, since we only have a 20% chance for rain. I will keep my fingers crossed.
