I made Marie with fabric that was harvested from an Urban Outfitters Bedspread that I bought on clearance (plus four more like it). Meant to be a useful muslin. I wasn’t sure if I would like this style but I not only like the style on me but love the simplicity of construction.

Lovely skirt, like the fabric, but you did make me laugh seeing you balancing on the chair!
