Have been doing a lot of craft sewing and sewing for my children lately, but this was just for me! This is actually the ‘muslin’ for a nicer and more colourful fabric I am still planning to sew but I decided to make a muslin because I had a baby 6 months ago & still am not back to pre-baby shape so I needed to test the pattern. Result= I love it! and i finally have something easy & pretty to wear.
Pattern- New look 6190 purchased circa 2000
Butterfly fabric- quilting cotton on sale at spotlight $6 for 1m
Taupe/orange floral- no idea where i got this from, just a scrap of vintage something

I know the feeling! I finally finished a few abandoned projects that were left because something needed to be finished for the kids. A nice muslin! Enjoy it and best of luck on the “real” skirt.

The 2 fabrics look great together and the skirt looks good.
