      Second time lucky! I had to undo the skirt to get a better fit! Thanks.

    Lovely…I always have trouble making satin look smooth, and professional…you did a great job.

      I haven’t used satin before – so I just went right in there and luckily it came out ok. It’s not exactly a completely satin fabric, but it’s very slippery. Thanks for the compliment!

      Thanks! The fabric sewed up really well, even though I had to undo the skirt to make a better fit at one stage.
