Isn't it fabulous? I think so! The fabric is actually curtain material which I bought on Tuesday. I came home from the shop and immediately washed it to take as much of the "curtain finish" off as I could. It's still a stiffer fabric than dress fabric would be - I wouldn't want to make a blouse out of it - but it's just perfect for a skirt.
The pattern is Butterick 4461 view C - the pinky one in this photo.
It's lovely! That fabric is just perfect - have fun making another one and I look forward to seeing it too.

Thanks, Gilly! :o)
DeleteThat's so lovely - it looks just like the fabric in the picture! Makes me feel summery in spite of the weather! Jane x
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jane. I'm hoping that the weather gets better so I get a chance to wear it!
DeleteLooks lovely Anne. Hope your weather warms up enough to get plenty of wear out of it.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Susan. Me too!
DeleteLovely and summery .... I had my linen summer trousers on today, as the sun was shining and it was hot!! We have even switched the heating off!!
ReplyDeleteWe turned our heating down so that it wouldn't come on ... but, of course, the temperature then dropped and it came on anyway! *sigh*
DeleteBeautiful - I hope my skirt turns out as well. J :)
ReplyDeleteIt will! Be sure of it! :o)
DeleteNow as long as we get some sun to go with the skirt's bright flowers!
ReplyDeleteI know, Jem! I hope it happens soon!
DeleteI love the fact you've made your skirt from curtain fabric. I also had a peek at your demin skirt, another lovely design. Hope we get a lot more sun so you can enjoy them.
