Butterick 6214 --Judy's Sewing a Summer Top

Butterick 6214
Simple Summer Top
I bought this pattern awhile back, and really for got I had it.
I saw that SarahLiz had made it. Hers was really cute.

Check it out.

She told how quick and easy it was.[thank you Sarahliz]


I decided I needed a sewing fix, and this easy/quick top
was just the right idea. We are having winter here, but
it will be nice to have a new top when spring arrives.

I cut it out in this burgundy/purple paisley print
fabric.. [Not sure what type of fabric it is? It
feels like it is some type of rayon? Drapes well]
I have been sewing on it, and should have it ready
for photos tomorrow [if my camera fellow [hubby] is
available. ha]

Hope your having a wonderful  weekend..

  1. If it is soft and drapey, it should work nicely. It's a very pretty print - should cheer you up on a winter's day, even if you can't wear it for a while yet.

    2. I'm hoping to make envelope style pillow covers and maybe even a duvet. I dont have lots of space to store extra sofa pillows so removeable covers should be a great option.
