Far Away Hearts & Minds Skirt


All done! Finished my last fittings late one night. My favorite proportions for clothing are things which come in close at the waist, but since this was my own design, I got to leave ample space for wider hips. Take that, commercial designs! Thanks for the nice comments on the "in progress" post for this skirt, it really motivated me to hurry up & finish!

  2. Thanks! I'm quite pleased with how it turned out & have actually started making another skirt based on an altered version of that pattern

  4. Yes, my love, the fabric. You were there. We were there. We knew it needed to be a something. I think you dress very well for your body shape, I always have to work to give this beanpole body some curves!
