I kind of struggle with the creative side of things but hopefully I made it well enough to last a few years, although not likely I’ll get a chance to wear it.
I did organza for the underlining and selvege from organza for bias asections so they didn’;t stretch.
3 layered triple handkerchied skirt. Adjustable straps .
Oh: Very cool moment!
Today at my “photoshoot” I went to the Hyatt and who should be there but RUFFLES GAZEBO who is an entrant and fellow Burdastyle member. I’ve never chatted to her before but I recognized her from her pics online / blog this comp. How cool is that!! I now have a friend I can go nuts about sewing with.
