Portefeuille Skirt - Paco Peralta
Done!
I got the skirt done today! The binding took the most time to sew on, and then I remembered about the hooks and eyes and snaps. Here's the binding, front and back:
The inside of the skirt:
There are two snaps on the inside, plus two hooks and eyes at the overlap edge:
The skirt will still need a good pressing, but I'm really happy with it so far. I like the style and the fitting was easy due to the way it was drafted. The pressing will have to wait until Monday, as I will be gone all weekend for a winter hiking seminar at the base of Mt. Washington.
Parting Shot: Embroidery. My new neice's outfit has a little embroidery to personalize it, which I was able to complete between last night and today. I promise more details on Monday, when I get back and will have time to work on the outfit.
