Simplicity 3867
I've really been doing a lot of sewing lately. These items were finished a week ago or more and I almost forgot I hadn't mentioned them. I made both the top and the dress from Simplicity 3867. I really liked the pattern. The construction of the shoulders is clever and new to me.
The top is a vintage border print silk. The border print was a little challenging because the border was along both selvages and down the center. I used the border for the ties, hem and shoulders.
The style is very easy to wear and conceals the lower half if you like that. All in all, I would recommend the top/dress pattern.

I'm beginning to think there is nothing you sew that I won't like. I love the choice of fabrics you chose for both pieces. Very clever way to use the border print!
