If a skirt is not fitted can it still be called a pencil skirt? This one has a bit more ease than what is typically considered to be a slim-fitting narrow skirt. I need ease. Another reason to sew, you can make things however you please.
This is actually a toile as I was testing out Vogue 8916 before I cut out this fabric.
I need a simple design so to not distract from this print. And I think I found it in out-of-print Vogue 8916. It's almost perfect. I just want to lengthen it a bit.
And I think I actually have a wearable muslin. A little shorter than I prefer to wear but it's conservative enough to wear to work.
The Stats
Fabric: 1.1 metres
Zipper: 8" invisible zipper
Interfacing: 1.1 metres
Additional Tools & Supplies: Sewing machine, zipper foot, invisible zipper foot, serger, threads, cutting table, iron, ironing board, scissors, pins, pin cushion, thread clippers, tweezers, hand sewing needle, thimble, and tea.
Happy Sewing!
The skirt is so pretty . I love the print .
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see your skirt from the City Scape fabric. I used that fabric to make a full pleated skirt (used 2 panels), and I'd love to see it made up in another style.
ReplyDeleteThe city fabric is fabulous. Looking forward to seeing the finished project!
