Wearing what I have made this week

So far this week I have worn garments that I have made. Unfortunately my camera and I are not working well together so I will have to show you shots of the items when I made them.

On Monday, I wore a black pant suit (RTW) with a blouse that I made that I truly love to wear. It is a Vintage pattern from Eva Dress Patterns. The colors are a little more vivid than in the photo and it always goes so well with black.

Yesterday I wore a dress and jacket that I made. The dress is a Vogue pattern and the jacket is from McCalls.

Today I wore this Vogue 8323 top with a RTW skirt that I just purchased while in Hagerstown at the Prime Outlet mall. Several reviews for this knit top at Pattern Review are a mixture of like and dislike for the top. The cowl neck on this was long in length and I reduced it some. The scoop neck top included with this pattern is one that I made also. I had pretty decent experience with the pattern.

Not sure what I will wear tomorrow. The weather continues to be cool one day and warm the next.
