Don't let that face fool you. I'm very happy with this little skirt. :-) I cut all of the fabric and interfacing for this skirt about a week ago, and on Friday morning, I thought, "Hey, I have an hour. I'm going to make that skirt." It actually took an hour and fifteen minutes, which aint bad for a lined skirt.
Hubs took these photos on Easter evening. I wore this crazy blue skirt to church, with bow (and got many compliments!), but thought something a bit more casual was in order for dinner with neighbors.
It's a bit wrinkled but you get the idea. The pattern is Butterick 5619. The skirt is a great A-line that I've used before for a denim version. I've only ever made the skirt from this pattern, but I keep eyeing that sheath dress.
I purchased the fabric at a new local shop, Gigi's Fabric Shop. The fabric is from the London Calling collection by Robert Kauffman. The fabrics seam pretty Liberty-inspired. It feels like a cotton lawn and is a bit sheer, so I lined the skirt with white cotton.
Overall, I am happy with this comfortable little skirt for spring.
