Finally.... A skirt....!!! :-)

I finally revved up my sewing machine, and make a skirt.  :-)  Just gathered skirt, with elastic.  Not even a pattern.  But it took me 3 hours.  -----    Hope the next one will "make" quicker.
.
The material is a cute cherries on a black and white background.  Just fun.
.
Next I'd like to do the same, for a lamp shade covering.  Made like a little gathered "skirt", with a ruffle on top.

I love this! I see this as a wonderfully cheerful spring/summer skirt. I used to sew many of my own clothes and really loved sewing, but then life happened, and it kind of got put on the back burner so to speak.

Have a wonderful week!

I love the fabric, I have an apron with cherries on it similar to that, and I adore it! Well done.

Yaaay, you finished the skirt! And does it ever look cute. I think I told you before that CHERRIES are my favorite fruit. Now, this would look good with a plain white or black top. Great job, Tessa. Keep showing us more!

Also, I wanted to tell you, I love the change to the pop-up comments. It's so much easier to comment, and wish more of my blog friends had it. :)
