Hat and blouses in school colors

Short-sleeved top, black sleeveless V-neck blouse with a flared 'skirt' below the bodice and an eight-paneled 'newsboy' hat in printed fabrics of black, black-and-white, and shades of gold. With them are commercial sewing patterns from Simplicity and New Look that correspond to the two blouses.

Completed just in time for school pictures this past week at Santa Rosa Charter School for the Arts: a couple of blouses, and a “newsboy” hat in the school colors of black, white and gold. Over the summer, I was given an unused stash of various quilting fabrics, and these projects made good use of it. The blouses each come from commercial patterns (shown in the photograph), while the hat is based on piecework I used to do for Hat People in southern Oregon.
