After giving my sewing space a quick clean, I started sewing something simple and comfortable.
Comfortable = elastic waist skirt.
I don't think I've owned an elastic waist garment since I was a kid. I know it isn't the most flattering or polished look, but it's light and just fine for hanging out with the kids.
The voile is a little sheer (Anna Maria Horner, Innocent Crush), but I'm OK with that around the house and I have a half slip that I wore today when we went to the shops.
Happy days :)
Congratulations on finishing university forever and on making a skirt. Apparently shape has more to do with the waist/hip ratio and gathered skirts help there so you like nice and feminine. I like the stripes on the skirt too. Cherrie
