My Ida-Maria, with little flower shaped buttons.
I love it! Think it’s too short for me to actually wear though :( I need to make a longer one.
Printed cotton, flower buttons

Your fabric is beautiful! Oh jeez! I wish I had that fabric! it totally makes the skirt! You did a great job!
Lots of exclamation marks, but as you can see, I am excited. lol

Great skirt, especially the fabric choice. I totally get you on the too short bit though. I did an Ida Maria skirt (which I should post) and it ended up sooo short. I wore it a few times with black tights but because it’s so poofy you feel like your hoo-ha’s going to be shown to the world if you bend or sit.
Regardless it looks great on you and I definitely concur with the other’s that some opaque tights would help with the shortness.

if I am a small size which are the measures I need followed to make that skirt ????

for the waist band, it’ll be your waist measurement + 10cm and 14 cm high, and then the skirt part will be your waist measurement x 2, and 37 cm high

loveee the fabric! and i agree with Leggy4; that’d be a stellar combo!

I don’t think its too short! maybe put some black or red (to match the flowers) tights on and some gorgey shoes and you’ll look stunning!

I don’t think it’s too short at all! Toss a pair of opaque tights on and the same color peep toe heels…to die for :)

I agree with the other comments – wear some coloured tights or leggings underneath and you could definately wear it. Gorgeous fabric!

OH, and I think if you wore colored tights under it, it wouldn’t look short at all!
