Skirt 5


I love linen.
I love how heavy it feels and how wrinkly it gets.
It is so classic.

I picked up a yard and a half of this lovely linen for half price last week.
On Sunday morning, I realized I didn't have a thing to wear to church.

Luckily our meetings don't start until 1:30.
It gave me just enough time to sew up this skirt.

  12. You are amazing! Did you use a pattern?

  13. no, charlotte, i didn't use a pattern. this skirt is very simple. it is basically just a rectangle at the top with an a-line shape attached to it. maybe i should do some sort of tutorial?
