Vogue 8815 in progress

The top is almost complete.  Here are photos I took before sleeves were inserted and top hemmed.
Here is the top with yellow fabric pinned to AlmaMarie to give you an idea of how the top will look with the coordinating fabric which will become a skirt. 
The top and skirt fabric was acquired last year from Les Fabrique in Charlottesville, VA.  The owner was a presenter at one of our ASG meetings.  I thought the floral fabric was a retro looking fabric and will the peplum style making a comeback I thought this was a perfect top to make.

  5. Darling outfit, Linda. Love the floral print. Both peplum patterns are so popular this season. I bought the New Look version, but have not had a chance to try it. May be I'll follow the trend before the summer ends.
