Ever since I acquired some stripey jersey fabric from the lovely Rehanon at a swap, I knew I wanted to make it into a skirt. And today was finally the day! Using a maternity skirt that I specifically bought to use as a pattern, I whipped it up this morning.
There’s not much to say about the project. It was fast, easy and just what the morning called for.The skirt only has one seam and I am happy that I managed to match the stripes. I encased some elastic for the waistband and that’s it. I had the perfect amount of fabric (a meter-ish, I think) and enough left over for a nifty headband. Sweet.
Happy Monday!

Ah glad the fabric went to such a good home and is housing such an important person 🙂 Also I have gone to bed dreaming about home cooked donuts for the last few nights. I’m going to give into my desire and make them this week. I’m a traditionalist when it comes to filling so they’ll be jam packed 🙂

Oooh. You can’t go wrong with a traditional jam-filled doughnut. But I’ve been tempted to make them again with lemon curd. *Drool* But why stop there, why not do both (not together)?
