Okay, I'm finally getting this skirt blogged.......I made it way back when......saw a fun inspiration on my friend Nathalie's blog.......at first it was an elastic waisted skirt....but just didn't suit me, so I added a zipper to made it more fitted.......I didn't use a pattern!
It is so bright and funky. I have yet to get my guts up to wear it out and about! What is it about me sewing for myself?! I have better luck making cute kids clothing...maybe because their size and shape is more forgiving? I dunno~
Happy patchworking Monday!

You totally need to wear that out and about - it's so darn cute (as are you in it!).
That skirt is GREAT! I love it. And you look great in it. You should wear it out and about with pride.
It's funny that you say that you have a hard time wearing things you make for yourself. I am exactly the same way! I love making things for my daughter, but the things I've made for myself I'm embarrassed to wear. I don't know what it is! But, it's nice to hear I'm not the only one.
Have a great day,

I love your skirt! I have the same problem, I'm totally attracted to bright colors, then once I've made something I have a hard time making myself wear it in public, haha! How did you do it without a pattern?!
Love the skirt!! You look superb in it. I really love the way the boots compliment the personality of the skirt!
Wear it out and about, girl!
It rocks!!!
Now, hmmm. Could you send one my way? Size 6 please!!!

I have to agree that skirt is too Dang Cute not to wear it. I love it!!
I love it. You should totally wear it out and about.
Looks fantastic :)
I LOVE IT! I think you should wear it out, it looks so cool! I made a little patchwork skirt for Hannah a few weeks ago. I guess I need to get it up on the blog. It's not as cool as yours though.
I absolutely love it and you should absolutely wear it out... I would. Draw up a pattern!!!
You look incredible!
That is way cool and way to go with out using a pattern. I haven't mastered that yet, I can see it in my head but the constuction never goes well. I do enjoy sewing for my girls way more than myself, next up is Easter outfits.
VERY cute skirt. Love it!
That is a crazy cute skirt! Along with the hoodie. You should feel like you're on top-of-the-world wearing that! Love it. :)
Laurie, that is the cutest skirt!! I always want to wear the cute skirts I find for Sara but think they would look funny on me! That, however looks great!!! =) The boots and sweater/shirt combo set it off.
I just got done posting tulips on my blog. Your photography is great. And I love the skirt. I think I might make one....I think I have some fabric around here somewhere...tee hee. Hey, how fun to be neighbors with Ms. Bari?
I think that's a gorgeous skirt I'd def wear it it will brighten everyone's day this time of year I love the colours. I haven't made clothes since I was 18 in school!
