A crafty little atelier in a grey city

Brown and Silver

September 24, 2012

Good morning! Hope your Monday is going well so far.

Here’s a little sophisticated matching top and skirt I worked on last week – the fabric is an earthy neutral color with streaks of silver thread. The back has an unexpected open design and is a bit sassy. Love!

These are pattern F (top) and N (skirt), and I’m steadily working my way through all the patterns in this book (ISBN 978-4-579-11289-0):

You can find other completed projects from this book here and here and here.

Next up: a peter pan collar shirt!

      Thank you, Dagny! Alas, it was never a big favorite of K’s but I loved it 🙂
