I made another skort April 24, 2009

Filed under: Uncategorized — Kimberley @ 8:52 am

Same pattern as last time…

It is a great print, but a bear to work with. The bolt I bought it from wasn’t printed exactly straight on the grain, which meant I had to cut out everything one piece at a time. I cut out one front and one back piece, then laid the cut fabric down on the fabric to match the pattern, then cut around that instead of the tissue.

I bought lots of it too, but fortunately the rest is destined to become an apron, so no matching necessary.

Despite the off-grain print, I managed to perfectly match the pattern at the back seam. I have mad skillz, yo!

    I think you are a master with the sewing machine, darlin’. I love this! Too bad I’m now too fat for skorts!
