I bought this fabric ages ago and finished the skirt sometime last week. It was going to be a holiday outfit, but I obviously didn't even begin to think about starting it until well after the holidays. Oh well, lol. I'll never say I'm not a procrastinator. But it got finished! When I started it I really hated the way it turned out, so I tore it apart, recut it, and made it over again. I'm more pleased with the finished product :P
And you can't see the lining, but I made the lining a bit more of a circle than the skirt (bigger, more fabric on the lining than the skirt), then I made a little bubble hem, to try and give the skirt some fullness without a petticoat. I covered the seam with a cute little grey ribbon too :) Just for me, no one else can see it, lol

I feel like I post few and far between for the amount of sewing I actually do. I don't know what is up with that. Sometimes I just don't take pictures. Sometimes I work for a few days on something and don't end up liking the end product so it goes in a box to be reworked at a later date. Sometimes I finish the entire thing so it sits for weeks waiting for me to sew on the buttons or hem it. Sometimes I just stare at my fabric for hours trying to become inspired.
