What a challenge this skirt was because of the fabric, it would ravel looking at it.. Just about every seam was serged and seam tape fused. The skirt did not call for a lining but it was necessary for this fabric. Besides I really like lined skirts most of the time.
So all is complete with this skirt except for the hem. I realized I cut out the longer version of the skirt and NL patterns as are most patterns are designed for tall people, not petite/vertically challenged indivduals as I am. So I will cut off about two inches to have the 1 1/4 inch hem called for.
I will take photos later.
Now I am undecided what I really want to make next. I put off a McCall's dress pattern with raglan sleeves as I just am not "feeling it" for this dress. I think I want to continue with skirts and have a few knit tops I want to sew up also.
I will sleep on it as I do have one more day of vacation left and hopefully can start new project tomorrow.
