First there was this.
Then there was this!
Thanks to Daisy's sewalong I've definitely been bitten by the sewing bug. Loved making this and I can see more to come! (Although next time I must make sure I wipe the mirror before taking any pictures!)
Meanwhile - look what came through the letterbox this morning .......
Oh my goodness Daisy Jones - look what you've started!
Happy sewing,
Jane

Love it Jane, fabric is fab x
ReplyDeleteIt's lovely Jane ... I've still to start mine ... someday soon ;) ... Bee xx
ReplyDeleteWoo hoooo . Brilliant. Love the leggings and flat ties with it
ReplyDeleteThe skirt looks great on you! I am living in one room while we build our house (on our own-so it's slow going) and I tried to dig out my sewing machine, but couldn't. My MIL had given me her sewing machine and I tried to give it away, twice, because I already had one. Well, this winter I got it out and I got the manual out and I love her machine! So glad I didn't give it away. Haven't got the nerve up to try clothes, but I think I will. Why not?

It looks fabulous. You did a great job with it! I can't wait to see what you make next. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat job and I love the fabric design and colour.
ReplyDeleteFantastic skirt.Love the material and you have done a great job.
ReplyDeletewoohoo, well done you, it's fabulous! xx
ReplyDeleteThis skirt looks like a pencil skirt yet is described as an A line. It looks that way on other people's versions too. So, too straight and tight for me!
ReplyDeleteThat looks very impressive, I must say! I've never made any actual clothes (apart from ones for toy rabbits to wear) but since watching GBSB I entertain ideas of making such pretty things. It's lovely. x
ReplyDeleteGorgeous, just gorgeous! I love the green. x
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely skirt you clever thing and such a trim figure!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations that is a brilliant skirt and an outfit I would certainly wear myself. Jane I would have loved to come aong on the 30th but we are on our family holiday. Jo x
ReplyDeleteDear Jane
ReplyDeleteWow! Huge congratulations - what a lovely skirt! I have yet to start my practise one due to pattern fitting issues, but I WILL make a skirt by the autumn!! Your next pattern looks very lovely too - looking forward to the Ta-dah for that!
Best wishes

I think you're skirt is really lovely. It fits you beautifully and love that gorgeous paisley fabric you used.
ReplyDeleteI joined in with Daisy's sew-along too - can't believe I actually made something I can wear AND learnt how to insert a zip.
I am currently making my first dress!!!
