I went downstairs to start another Solstice Dress, but then remembered I'd set aside two old pinafores to mend. Both of them are the Verity Hope Pinafore, that I made maybe 10 years ago now? Wild to think they're that old.
I liked them so much that I wore the freaking heck out of both dresses, patched then, etc. Anyway today I made them both into tops, and now I LOVE THEM! They're loose so obviously a tank underneath is necessary, but I love the layered look, and the swish is perfect.
I added a big heart to the black one. ❤️
If you dig this but don't want to hack the Verity Hope pattern, the Solstice Dress from Folkstead has a top option that looks lovely.

I just finished this dress! :)
(I love sewing pockets on dresses, POCKETS ARE POWER)It’s the Solstice Dress from Folkstead(.com). Wonderful pattern! This is my second one, the first was a very wearable toile. This pattern goes from XXS to 5X and isn’t a complicated sew, would be good for beginners.
Edited to add: the bottom hem is the selvage! I love pretty selvages and it hurts me to cut them off “just because,” so I try to incorporate them wherever I can!
