This circle skirt is the last of the projects I started months ago. There’s nothing much to say except it’s a self-drafted pattern. Sadly the pattern is now a bit big for me so I cut the circle into fourths and sewed them back together using a quarter-inch seam allowance. That helped cinch the skirt in the waist. Huzzah!
Now, the only thing I currently have in my sewing queue is a couple of shirts for the men in the house. Must get those done so I can get back to sewing for me.me.me.

Cute! Great drape of the fabric. (And I dig your stripey cardigan!) Best of luck wrapping up your selfless stitching… 🙂
