Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I’m a wannabe hack, I had an interview for a journalism course… so of course I had to make a skirt for it! Et voila! A fun houndstooth pencil skirt based on the Jenny pattern.
You can read more about it over at my blog, Can’t Say Strawberry

Thank you! I got a place on the course so I think so, but I’m hoping it wasn’t just due to the skirt ;)

Thank you! I actually dressed a little differently for the interview itself, I wore a pinky shirt instead, but I like the mustard much better. It did, I got in and am due to start in September! Very excited :)
