When I saw this jersey fabric on ebay I fell in love!! I would like to sew more with patterned fabric so I bought it and made a simple skirt based on the first burda skirt I made, because the floral pattern is quite detailed I wanted it simple. I lined the skirt with another jersey fabric a market trader some how managed to flog to me (it’s not very nice) to give the skirt a nice weight. So all in all Very happy with the outcome.
(p.s if anyone is interested in the fabric the sellers name is ‘hussain fabrics’ I think)

Beautiful skirt and very well made! I’m wondering how hard it is to work with jersey, because I’d like to have a go as well! Great job!
