Jazz Up July - Activewear Tops

I made these activewear vest top and crop top since the beginning of the month and wore them sometimes for exercise (yoga) at home. These garments are my entry for "Jazz Up July"  #magamsewalong  hosted by  @suestoney ,   @sewing_in_spain  and  @hportemanteu For the fabrics, I used blue and black medium weight jersey knits from old and new stashes. The fabric suggestion from the pattern is four-way stretch fabric but I only have medium weight and I think it's fine. And for the pattern, I used "Sew Your Own Activewear" book by  Melissa Fehr . Both vest top and crop top are based on close-fitting top block pattern, I used size XS with size L for the waistline and M for the hips. Firstly I made a basic tank top and then I worked on the vest top and crop top. All modifications are written with step by step and pictures. I love this book and planning to make more garments (jacket, leggings and tops).
