Skirt
Inspired by the effortless creations of Mrs Flibble, I had bash at making myself a skirt. This is actually the second attempt, the first is NEVER seeing the light of day, let alone the WWW.
It was supposed to be a copy of a skirt in the Boden catalogue. I don't think they need to worry about being put out of business quite yet, but I am moderately pleased with it.

Re: Skirt
Aww fanks all.

It's corduroy (I can never spell it right!), with a silk lining - it is for winter, y'know, to wear with really thick purple tights and nice warm boots. Oooh I can't wait to get all cosy and rugged up again. It also means those wibbly white legs can go back into hiding - YesssSilver Ether wrote:I think its lovley whats the fabric ....
