Top and skirt

I have decided on the top I am going to make using the brown/teal floral rayon fabric. It is a New Look blouse that I have had in my stash for years. It is sleeveless and I am having mixed feelings about that. Partly because it has gotten cooler now and I think I should have something with sleeves. BUT!, I am over 50, still have power surges, can be hot one minute and cold the next. Since I plan to wear this with the jacket, I think my personal thermostat will better maintain itself. At this time I am considering two KS skirts, one is a gored skirt and the other is a panel skirt, KS 3287.

Debbie Cook at Stitches and Seams just completed this skirt and I saw another version on Pattern Review. So, now it has become a pattern I want.

I will post more later. DH has just gotten up and is suggesting we should go have breakfast! Any time I don't have to cook is okay with me!!!!
