This is Burda 11-2008-110 skirt, an 8-gored flared-hem trumpet-y number.
I used the wool suiting fabric from the stash and this nightmare of a lining, worked on it for three weekends, finished it last week, and wore it to work. It's a very feminine skirt, a lot more than I'm used to. All of a sudden all these curves just show up! Wearing the skirt made me feel odd, giddy, and girly that my voice went up an octave or two. My coworkers thought I was sick. So I went home early and took some pictures.
The last picture I'm just showing off my shoes.
Please don't be offended by the bad pressing job. It's not my forte. I don't forte in everything I do no matter what people say.
