When I say easy peasy. I mean from cut to hem and finishing an hour tops. This is as simple as it gets. Oh please disregard the freaking band aid on my arm. I had to give blood on this particular day and didn't realize before my photo I didn't take the darn thing off.
The fabric is a remnant, and I think I only had about a yard and a half from The Sewing Studio here in Maitland, FL. It has sat in my stash for a couple of years, and I originally purchased it to make an infinity scarf. I needed something to wear to work one morning so I whipped this baby up in about 30 minutes. The pattern had already been cut, since I have used this pattern several times its one of my favorite TNT's.
The Pants I made some time ago. They are made of a Linen Blend and just a simple pair of pants with elastic waist, and strawstring.
Happy Sewing!
Wow. Your outfit looks fabulous - you'll be the best dressed in your office this summer. It is difficult to look professional in the summer isn't it? I can never find anything in the shops that looks good. There is a general move towards skimpy and loose in the summer that spells casual rather than professional...
