Simplicity 9626 Black White Floral Print Skirt & McCall 7975 Crepe Knit Twist Top

VivmomSews from YouTube inspired with her black & white floral print skirt.  Wouldn't you know that I had purchased the same fabric from FabricMartFabrics.com.  Yeah me!

Searching through my pattern stash for a full or half circle skirt I came up with this vintage Simplicity 9626 half circle skirt pattern I had.  I omitted the side zipper and added 1-1/2" elastic to the waistband.  Easy sew!

The fabric is a fabric panel that I removed the stripe portion and made the skirt from just the floral part.  I then sewed the 8" stripe border portion back onto to bottom of the skirt.  The fabric was a double border floral print crepe knit that sewed up beautifully.

I needed a top to wear with my new skirt.  The McCall's 7975 twist top came to mind and the crepe ITY knit fabric was a perfect match.

I used a fold-over elastic at the neckline and made elbow length sleeves.
