Then along came Sofie who said I had to! And in my mind I could hear Tany, Summerset and the rest of you saying "Just do it!!!" (I chose to mention Tany and Summerset as I know they do not sleep - or how else do they get so much done?). To cut a long story short I finished my new skirt at 11.30 and here it is..........
Did my hair really look like that all day today?The skirt has an invisible zip in the back and I bagged the lining and eliminated facings. I understitched the lining down to the seam allowances. To ensure the waist does not stretch I sewed in cotton tape.
This was so easy and I am really happy with how it turned out. And yes the fabric came with the embroidery and the sequins. Who said accountants had to be boring?
And the wearablity factor for the Ottobre top? 10 out of 10!

What a great outfit!
It's a fabulous skirt and 3 hours isn't bad at all!
I never sleep, yeah right! Thanks for the compliment - I usually keep myself pretty busy and entertained. I'm a basket case if I'm bored! School is starting soon, I'm sure production will slow down. A bit.
Wow, that's sharp! Great return on the investment ;)
Excellent outfit - you look so polished and coordinated!
I'm overwhelmed! What a terrific outfit!
Looks wonderful, and makes a great outfit.

That skirt is a real winner. And it looks great on you! Way to go!
The skirt is just sooooo kewl! I love the embroidered fabric and how nice that it was just sitting in your stash waiting for you to make something gorgeous from it!
Vicki, the embellishment on both the skirt and the top really take a basic silhouette into the next realm. Very pretty, classy outfit.
And those shoes are just fab!!
What a great outfit. A skirt in 3 hours is great. I love the skirt fabric too. That embroidery gives it such a sophisticated touch. Enjoy!
