Description
in the winter i fall into a bad boring dressing pattern of pants, long-sleeved top and sweater. it must be changed! so i made this pleated skirt sort of based on a skirt i already have. i traced the pattern from the skirt, added the snap panel and the loops in the front (thanks isabel toledo!). my mom bought this fabric in sweden, they usually make bus seats out of it, i love the texture of it!
Material Notes
fabric from sweden imported by my mom snaps from kamsnaps.com

How fun! I recognize the fabric from the buses here in Sweden :)

This is so cool, and the colour is wonderful – perfect for autumn days, jumping through dried leaves! :)

Love the fabric texture. I’m sure it looks nicer as your skirt than on a bus seat.

I agree this skirt is fantastic, very creative!! love the photos too. You have inspired me to reevaluate my winter uniform as well. Great job!

Oh, I could never have imagined anyone would make a skirt out of our bus-seat-fabric, but it looks great! And I know that kind of material is really nice to touch, soft but steady! I love the pictures.

Really stylish, the curling pleat is clever and about the fabric …Ikea won’t have it
