McCall's 6126


Both of the skirts shown are from the same pattern, just different views. This skirt is from a remnant. I had to make the back from the same fabric as the ruffle, because of the fabric shortage.




I was lucky enough to have a shirt that coordinated. Some might say that it's all too much, but it's my style!

 I made a huge mistake on this skirt. I sewed the lacy fabric to the wrong side and after I noticed it, it was too late to undo everything. When I tried it on, it was way too short and funky (in a bad way). Luckily I had some extra lace fabric so I cut a straight panel and sewed that to the bottom. Problem solved. Whew! That would have been an expensive mistake.


The bomber jacket came from Lane Bryant, it is made from the same fabrication. See that white stuff in the background? Yes, that is snow. We went from summer to winter, hence the hiatus from blogging.
