I finally did cut up that tree fabric to make a wrap skirt that fits my expanding middle
It is my first handmade clothing item designed to fit my very-different-now shape, and as such it fits the bill in that it is stretchy, comfy, and non-restrictive. It is not, however, exactly what I envisioned when I set out to make it, nor as cute as I would like it to be (I would prefer it a bit floatier at the bottom-should have done a half-circle wrap!). I will certainly wear it (see aforementioned “comfy” factor), but I’m considering it a muslin for future skirt efforts. I have a hankering for a denim skirt, and a good length of navy stretch jersey for the waistband, so that may be up next!
Happy weekend to you all!
