Skirt #2 finished!

Well, almost. A little hand sewing remains on the inside of the waist to finish off the lining. This is Apple's practise skirt, her first attempt, before she tries sewing with the lovely floral satin from Tessuti. This purple poplin was actually a bit hard to sew with, because it doesn't stretch or mould very well. So the inside of the hem is all scrunched, the blind hem was very awkward to sew. But you wouldn't know once it's being worn!

I'm wearing my green linen Skirt By Summer today, it is lovely. I think the quality of the fabric isn't just easy to sew, it helps it to sit nicely, the satin one will probably turn out the best.
