Leaves

January 15, 2014

This is version #2 of my lined pencil skirt.  It is a very pretty brocade with gold leaves.  I lined it in black china silk, and added a walking vent.  The original pattern didn’t have that, and what the heck was up with that??  Pencil skirts need those things or else you are just about waddling.

What went wrong with this one?  I added inches onto the pattern, so this one wasn’t too tight.  I added too much, of course.  It is really rather loose at the waist, but that just means it sits lower.  Next version – add a little less.

  1. I love this skirt. The fabric is beautiful. Combined with toasted sweater and black shirt is a very elegant and balanced look.
