Summer is coming!



Finally, some sunshine over here. And warm weather :-) This weekend is going to be exceptionally nice with 25+ degrees and all sunny! So, time to get some serious summer tops going. I made the Azalea from Burdastyle.com as a top. I had the blue voile for a long time and always wanted to make a top like this with it. When cleaning out some of my stash I found it again and immediately knew what to do with it!
I did not have enough of the blue tricot to make a belt out of it as the pattern calls for. It really was a scrap that was barely big enough for the top and facing. So, I am using a ribbon from my stash for now. I do think it needs to be a bit wider, but I cannot be bothered to go ribbon-hunting right now. It is ice-cream time! :-D
