I would like to make some pencil skirts. I think a double knit would be great for that. Maybe a stretch woven fabric as well. I am thinking of trying Pamela's Magic Pencil Skirt pattern.
Last night I bought some double knit at JoAnns for Sewaholic's Renfrew pattern. I found a nicer double knit there in a charcoal gray color, pictured above. They only had a few colors in the good double knit. I bought a black and off-white print fabric for a button down blouse (also pictured above) while I was there that I plan to use with McCalls 6035. I also grabbed a few yards of denim to try out a jeans pattern. I have Vogue 1034 for the jeans. We'll see if I like that one.
So, I have 3 projects ready to be started, and many more in mind. I'm leaning toward wearing more skirts and dresses every day, but we'll see how cold that makes me this winter!
?Thanks for the lovely compliment on my skirt. Looking forward to your pencil skirts and dresses. I am trying to enlighten my wardrobe with skirts.
