Day 5 ~ Me-Made-May 2014

Today's afternoon highs projected to reach 91 degrees F, with talk of setting a record to boot, all our gardens needed to be watered well.  We grow quite a bit of our food and enjoy having a large vegetable garden as well as pretty flowering plants throughout our landscape.  I've already fed and watered the chickens.

I am wearing the sleeveless cotton peasant top I wore the day other to go to lunch and shop with my husband.  Today shows the versatility of this hardworking little top.  The shorts are rtw.  Now I do not wear this when digging in our red clay dirt, but it makes a fine cool little top for mornings like this.  At 10:30 am it is already hot.
I need to make a couple more as I enjoy this one so much.
I'm hoping to work on a couple of other me-made projects this afternoon, now that my outside chores are done!
Sleeveless Peasant Top

  1. That is a very pretty top, with a lovely neat fit around the neckline and armholes. Nice match with the shorts.

  2. This sleeveless peasnat top is really pretty, perfect for warm weather. It's so hot where I live that I wish I had more tank tops like this :)

  3. Gosh, early heat - you may be in for a long hot summer - more tops needed, I think, and some nice cotton shorts.

    1. That's what we are afraid of as we tied a record high of 91 degrees F yesterday after I wrote this post. But then this whole last year's weather has been wonky with record lows, then record highs. You are most astute as I just realized I needed some nice cotton shorts as I actually have none! And more tops..... !!!
