The Skirt, I Feel Better

My wadder has been saved, I feel much better about the project and my fabric.

I added darts to the back of the skirt, used the black waistband from the dress as the facing for the skirt and that was it.

My skirt in a dressy outfit:




Red knit tunic - more casual, you don't see the welts here:


Very casual and summery.



The welts do hang better on my body, they are hitting at the end of the dressform and it is making them look a bit funny.

I am off to sew a bit, working on a blouse for the blouse contest on the Creative Machine email list on Yahoo. I cut it out last night and the deadline is May 12th.
