She Is All Done!


Wow, seriously I need to get back into the swing of things. Feels like I have been living in the holiday fog, and I am ready to see the light! In order to feel more ready, I have pictures of the holiday skirt. It was my first time working with a satin material, and it went better than I thought. Although there were some tense moments. Used Simplicity pattern 2512 and a satin backed shantung material. Love the color and my favorite part of the skirt are the pockets. A momma MUST have pockets.

This is my second time putting in the infamous invisible zipper. Not the best work, but here's hoping that my rear is not scrutinized to much! All in all I think this skirt was fun and might come out of the closet on more than just a holiday occasion.
