A skirt making FRENZY!

Wow, have I made a lot of skirts recently!  Well, I've made four... and I've got one more to go.

Last weekend I was fortunate to find myself with a willing assistant (my step-daughter Miss Livy) to take photos, which means I'm able to show you two of the skirts I've made.

First up is this delightful dusty pink floral skirt, which is perfect for wearing whilst drinking tea:

 

 "No Stella, the cup of tea is not for you!"

The fabric is quite a heavy woven cotton, so its a good weight for winter.  Plus its a pretty colour.  I like wearing it with blue to bring out the blue hydrangea in the print, but it also looks lovely with pink.

Right!  The next skirt I made is with the most awesome cotton fabric EVER!

Thats right - apples!  And its so bright and cheery, it makes me want to dance:

But you can't see the skirt very well in that one, so here is a more normal pose:

I have one more skirt to make - its boring (but servicable) black.  But I'm going to turn it up a notch by putting in POCKETS!  And this weekend I'm getting two days of sewing (thanks to the Steve being otherwise entertained), so I'm pretty sure I'll get the skirt done, and some other blouses, and maybe some more cutting out...

Have a great week - what's left of it!
