It's Finished!

I'm super happy! I just got my jean skirt FINISHED! (the one I've been "working on" for the last few months! lol!)  We stayed home from church today because we all have a nasty cold, so I had some pleasant free time this afternoon! Below are the pics of the rest of the process:


I sewed the over lapped parts I had pinned together.



I'm ready to sew the fabric panels on!


Front panel pinned on! (It's inside out right now)


I left about 1/2 an inch on the bottom for the hem.
(I forgot to post the pics of the patterns I made. I noted on the panel patterns I made to allow for 1/2 an inch on all sides for seam allowance & hem)



This was tricky to stitch, but not that bad! It's pinned here.



Tada!



Stitching...


The front panel is sewn on!


Front - I'm thinking of taking in the side seams a bit so it's not quite so flared out... We'll see...



Back - I'm glad with the way I stitched the back. It doesn't stick out as some I've seen. :)
I like that it's long! I can wear heels & it'll still be nice & long!

And that's my skirt!! :D Thanks for lookin'!

  1. It's sooooooo cute! You did a great job with the skirt! :-D I love the purple fabric you chose! I personally think you should leave it flared out because it looks good that way & it gives you more room to move! ;-)
