I finally got around to wearing my new Simplicity skirt. I really like the fit of the skirt and it wore very well. The only thing I want to do is adjust the hook and eye closure. I always seem to have a hard time determining the best placement for sewing those on. Anywho--here is a shot or two of me wearing the skirt. The black knit top is from a Sandra Betzina pattern and I have just about worn this top to death, great knit. The jacket is a purchased sweater knit cropped jacket with horizontal ridges which of course does not show well in the photos.
Having taking the pictures before heading off to work yesterday, I realized I needed to wear a necklace and add a pearl necklace to the look. Wish I had thought of it before taking the photos.
This next one gives a close up of the pockets, which I just love!
I order two pieces of fabric from EOS which arrived yesterday. I want to take a couple of shots to post. Both pieces are better than my expectations. Later
