so after work today...
« on: 10 Jan 2007, 17:03 »

i got out early [home by like 4:30] and made a skirt.

The material is indian silk out of sari material i bought in Singapore.
I just kinda cut it into a square and made a hankerchief skirt. The waist band was tough though, i really should have drawn up a pattern for it, but i was too lazy.



It was basically done when my parent's came home from work about 8:30.

That looks great! Did you do any kind of measuring/patterning before you started?

the first thing i did was cut a square and sew the edges. Then i measured around my waist, and guestimated a circle in the middle. It turned out a little big, but perfect for my hips with the help of a waistband ;)

Sadly, your face is obscured by the flash, but it's a cool effect, and we can still see the skirt okay. It looks very nice!

here is another picture just to prove i'm not hiding behind my flash. It's just that the skirt is blurry in this one.

Nice skirt, but almost all digital cameras have a self-timer.
