good job, purple is one of my favorite colours too!
I can see that the zipper you used is an invisible zipper, those are really hard to work with eh! There’s actually a special zipper foot you can get for your machine designed especially to sew invisible zippers so that it looks like a plain seam and you can’t even tell it’s there. You did very well though even without it. Nice skirt!

You’ve got to be proud of yourself and of the zipper insertion – excellent execution! I like the lace trim on the hem and I especially love the color of your skirt. Do post few pics with you wearing it!

Yes, I’ve added a lining because you can see trough the fabric. I amaze myself! ;)
