My Creative Space...

The avalanche continues!! Three garments in three days!!! Woot woo!
This a-line skirt has been in the works (mentally) for a while. I originally mentioned it when I first outlined my wardrobe plans for this year. Actually just looking back at that post, I've now made 6 items from it. All are now being worn, except the kaftan, which is pretty darn impressive if I do say so myself.

Anyway, back on track, the pattern is pretty much self drafted. I did originally cut cut the fabric using this New Look pattern, but it has been modified soooooo much that I don't think I need to credit this pattern AT ALL!!!

I'm pretty happy with the result and think this will be my Wednesday next week!!

  2. oh I love the fabrics you have used for these two skirts. You are making me feel guilty, I have a skirt pattern here and fabric and really should be making too. I am still in winter mode with my crochet and knitting.

  6. Use to love Newlook patterns when I made all my own clothes. They were a lot cheaper than the rest and they were always a good look and a bit different. Skirt looks great
